    This summer you can experience BateLodge, a unique experience over 2 days in Kongeparken. Surrounded by the park's beautiful nature and attractions, you and your family live comfortably in one of ten new cottage tents in BateLodge equipped with a bedroom, living room, bathroom and private balcony. Everything is arranged for Norway's Coolest Holiday in the new BateLodge.

Crazy heights and drops in Kongeparken

After your trip to the spectacular Månafossen waterfall, it's time for a little more barrier-breaking in Kongeparken where you can test your heroism. After a good night's sleep, visit the headquarters for magic and excitement.

Perhaps you dare to do the unexpected - how about testing Stupet (the plunge) - where your heart feels like it's skipping a beat and that feeling of thrill is guaranteed. Or try the wild ride in Raset (the landslide), where you can feel the forces of nature unleashed. Do you have the courage?

Sliding fun in Raset: A huge landslide has occurred in the mines in the mountains. The rocks are unstable, and you as a guest are visiting the centre of the mine when the cave-in occurs. Here you end up on top of one of the rocks that has fallen onto the mine rails.

Spooky fun

If you come here during the autumn and Halloween season, the park is open several days in October. Then you can visit the ghostly night and experience some scary fun!

Reaching new heights together

Is it nerve-wracking to go up in the air? Practising what you're afraid of is often the best cure. Do you want to exceed the limitations you've set for yourself? Try an activity where the whole family can bond. Strap on your harness and helmet and make your way up the climbing wall. Or manoeuvre from tree to tree in the climbing park. What an experience to write home about!
