(eap) At the end of March, Germany’s Safariland Stukenbrock in East Westphalia started into its 2026 season, which will run until 1 November. The animal and leisure park, which is recognized as a zoological garden, covers 65 hectares and has combined drive-through safari and amusement park experiences for more than 55 years. Guests can drive through the “Löwenland” (“Lion Country”) and past the “Tal der Elefanten” (“Valley of the Elephants”) in their own cars or on one of the safari buses. Along the way, they can see lions, giraffes, and elephants up close.
In addition, the park offers around 30 rides, an indoor play park, live shows and an adventure resort with overnight accommodation. For the current season, another children’s ride, the “Dschungel Flieger” (“Jungle Flyer”), has been launched. Passengers (aged six and older may ride alone; younger children must be accompanied by an adult) can use a joystick to control the altitude of their plane. The ride dates from 1972 and was built by the French manufacturer Lutz. For its use at Safariland, the ride was extensively converted and fully refurbished. The new wrapping and design were created by Ruben Cordes of RC Graphic Design & Werbetechnik. Besides the new ride, parts of the park also feature a new look. Furthermore, the live shows have also been newly arranged.
“Safariland Stukenbrock is a leisure park that should be accessible to everyone – and a fairly calculated price is particularly important for this,” the management emphasizes. Accordingly, family-friendliness at Safariland is intended to be reflected not only in the offer, but also in the admission prices. ■
