The biggest amusement park in the country is a day out to remember for younger members of the clan. Tusenfryd, around 20 kilometers south of Oslo, is open from April to October and has more than 30 rides and attractions. Among them are six roller coasters like Loopen, a steel mainstay for 30 years, and the high-speed Super Splash, which makes a splash five meters high when it hits the water.
These are partnered with all sorts of old-fashioned games and amusements, and smaller rides like bumper cars, teacups, merry-go-rounds, and the recent Thor’s Hammer motion-based 3D ride. Since 2000 there has also been a water park, BadeFryd with four slides and a pool, for fun when the sun is out.
