Wow Park Billund

Nestled in the heart of Denmark, WOW PARK Billund offers families a chance to reconnect with nature through adventure-filled activities. Unlike traditional amusement parks, WOW PARK is a nature-inspired playground where kids, parents, and even grandparents can experience the great outdoors while climbing, sliding, exploring, and learning. Whether you’re scaling treetop walkways or toasting marshmallows by a campfire, WOW PARK promises a day packed with fun and memories for everyone. We really enjoyed Billund in general, known as the ‘Capital of Children’ it is a great choice for a short family break.

Getting to Billund from the UK

Getting to Billund used to be very cheap and easy, especially for those traveling from the UK. Direct flights with Ryanair from major cities like London and Manchester took less than two hours, making it a perfect spot for a family weekend trip. Unfortunately Ryanair wont be flying there anymore.

The reason for this is noted on the Ryanair website:

“Ryanair, today (Fri, 31 Jan) announced that it will close its 2 aircraft Billund base (a loss of $200m investment) and cut all routes to/from Aalborg from the end of March, in response to the Govt’s short-sighted decision to introduce an aviation tax of up to DKK 50 per departing passenger from Jan 2025, coupled with Billund’s failure to agree a competitive long-term agreement.”

A Ryanair spokesperson said:

“We are very disappointed to announce the closure of our 2 aircraft Billund base and our operations at Aalborg from the end of March, but we have been left with no other choice following the Danish Govt’s short-sighted decision to introduce a harmful aviation tax from Jan 2025.

Ryanair is the only major airline growing in Europe, and cost is the main factor when deciding where to allocate aircraft and growth. Unfortunately, this harmful aviation tax makes Denmark (especially regional Denmark) hopelessly uncompetitive compared to other EU countries, like Sweden, Hungary, and Italian regions, who are abolishing aviation taxes to stimulate traffic recovery and growth”

Alternative ways to access Billund

You can still fly between London and Billund with airlines like British Airways. Naturally this will be more expensive than you would have previously paid with Ryanair.

You could consider getting budget flights to Copenhagen and then a 3 hour train to Billund. Copenhagen is a fantastic destination for families, you can read more about it here.

For those looking for even more fun up in the trees, the Adventure Nets let kids and adults bounce, jump, and climb high above the forest floor. It’s a perfect activity for those wanting to test their agility while feeling like they’re flying through the air.

3. Friendly Goats and Animal Encounters

Take a break from climbing and sliding to meet WOW PARK’s friendly goats.

There’s nothing like flying through the air on a zip line, and WOW PARK has plenty of them! The park offers a range of zip lines for various ages and bravery levels—from short, gentle rides for younger kids to longer, faster zips for thrill-seekers.

If zip lines aren’t your thing, try out one of the many swings around the park. Some swings are designed for toddlers, while others soar high above the ground, providing a unique and exhilarating way to take in the park’s scenery.

5. Underground Caves and Mazes

WOW PARK’s Underground Caves and Mazes add an element of mystery and exploration to your visit. These dark, twisting tunnels are perfect for curious adventurers who love to explore hidden spaces. Above ground, natural wooden mazes will test your navigation skills as you work your way through fun, puzzling paths.

During the warmer months, WOW PARK’s Water Play Areas are a hit with kids looking to cool off after a day of climbing and exploring. These shallow streams and splash zones offer plenty of opportunities for kids to build dams, explore ponds, and enjoy some water fun. Just don’t forget to pack extra clothes!

WOW PARK’s focus on nature shines through in its cozy Fireplaces scattered around the park. You can gather your family around an open fire to roast marshmallows, pop popcorn, or just warm up after a day of activity.
