Let me present the best waterpark in the world: Rulantica! Located within the Europa-Park resort in Rust, Germany, Rulantica is a world-class waterpark that offers a wide range of attractions, entertainment, and amenities to visitors of all ages. The park has gained significant popularity since its opening, attracting both local and international visitors seeking an exciting and enjoyable water-based experience.
As mentioned, Rulantica is situated adjacent to the Europa-Park theme park in Rust, Germany. The waterpark covers an expansive area of approximately 45,000 square meters, providing ample space for numerous attractions and facilities.

Rulantica boasts a large wave pool, providing visitors with the opportunity to experience the excitement of ocean-like waves in a controlled environment. The wave pool is a popular attraction for those seeking a more relaxed aquatic adventure. And the waves are HUGE!
My favorite attraction definitely is Vildstrøm, an outdoor rapid river. There’s also a lazy river offers a gentle and scenic journey through the waterpark. Visitors can relax on inflatable tubes as they float along the meandering river, taking in the beautiful surroundings.

Rulantica has dedicated areas for children, including shallow pools, mini-slides, and interactive water play features. These areas are designed to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for young visitors, allowing them to splash and have fun in a controlled environment. The waterpark is divided into several themed areas, each offering a unique atmosphere and attractions. The park’s theming revolves around a Nordic mythology concept, transporting visitors into a mystical and enchanting world. Some of the themed areas include:
Trølldal: This area is designed for younger guests and features shallow pools, mini-slides, and interactive water play elements.
Skog Lagune: Skog Lagune is a serene lagoon surrounded by lush greenery, providing a tranquil escape for visitors seeking relaxation.

Rulantica Waterpark maintains high standards of operations and safety to ensure a pleasant experience for all guests. Trained lifeguards are stationed throughout the park to monitor the attractions and respond to any emergencies. The park also enforces strict safety guidelines, including height restrictions for certain slides and the mandatory use of life jackets in designated areas During our stay we stayed at Bell Rock Hotel, a very luxurious marine styled hotel. It is incredibly designed (where Europapark is known for!). It’s a majestic hotel with the most comfortable rooms and many leisure facilities such as an outdoor and indoor pool, fitness facilities, restaurants and bars. Make sure you book a room here, you won’t be disappointed!

What a great weekend we had! Rulantica is definitely one of the best water parks I have been to. Overall service is excellent and employees will make sure you have a wonderful time! Highly recommended!
