The novelties of Serengeti-Park

Safari-Blitz, Safari-Blitz-Kids and the Big Foot Safari

After more than half a year of rehab I decided to go to the Serengeti-Park Hodenhagen today to finally have a ride again! The sympathetic animal and amusement park in the Lüneburg Heath has changed a lot since my last visit in 2013. Many rides have left the park, but in addition there are quite a number of unique attractions, which really make a visit to the Serengeti Park unforgettable.  The big and small novelties this year definitely speak for themselves. The ride on the Big Foot Safari was simply terrific and in the finals I simply pulled myself out of my seat. The Höllenblitz aka Safari Blitz is doing great in the Serengeti Park and the small revolving gondola roller coaster next door was a positive surprise – after all Safari Blitz Kids is completely unknown to the roller coaster community so far :).

The visit during the Covid-19 pandemic

But due to the corona, the visit was by no means normal. Many rides simply didn’t have any more capacity, which made the queues in some places look ridiculous. Furthermore, all safari attractions are often crowded with visitors who do not want to take the new rules of the park into account. This is a pity, as the park really tried hard in many ways and the staff was always attentive. It may have been Whitsun – the visitors really did come from all over the place – but I recommend a visit during the week when there is no rush.

Wildpark Lüneburger Heide (2020)

Wildpark Lüneburger Heide during the Covid-19 pandemic

The Wildpark Lüneburger Heide near Nindorf close to Hamburg has been open to visitors again since last Wednesday. For Corona reasons, visitors are currently required to wear masks in the entrance area and when ordering at the food stands and in the shops. Apart from that, one appeals to common sense and does not interfere any further with what is going on – at least this is the case in the actual zoo; at the tree-top trail Heide Himmel there may be longer waiting times due to the current one-way policy, as the exit for many visitors has to be via the lift at the observation tower and use is only permitted for groups belonging together. In general, the management of the park is really exemplary in this respect. The newly gained normality is visibly good for the visitors, but those who continue to be frightened by Corona should rather visit during the week or skip it for the time being.

Papenburg (2019)

itemprop="discussionURL"0

During 2019 I spent some days at the ATP testing centre in Papenburg. During the evenings, I had the chance to explore a bit of the picturesque city centre and its countless restaurants. Although Papenburg is a rather small city, there is quite a lot of stuff to see and do. The most interesting of these activities for sure would be a visit to the Meyer Werft, where many of the modern cruise ships are being built.
