TusenFryd Amusement Park

Go for a ride with Speed Monster - Scandinavia's most spectacular roller coaster. This is an awsome experience for everyone who dares to try it. It is built in steel and the theme is racing cars. The acceleration (0 - 90 kilometres per hour in 2 seconds) is actually faster than today's Formula 1 racing cars.

There are also more than 30 other rides and games, a water park, more than 20 restaurants and a special area for the youngest children.
