Discover Rulantica
What is Rulantica?
Rulantica is a water world that's open all year round. The park tells the story of a mysterious Nordic island, with merfolk, trolls, a frozen sea serpent and the cheerful mascot Snorri, a six-armed octopus. There are more than 40 slides and attractions, for families, daredevils and anyone who wants to relax.
The water is 27 to 32 °C, the air in the hall 30 to 34 °C. Rulantica is on the edge of Rust, opposite Hotel Krønasår and a few minutes from Europa-Park.
The areas

- Rangnakor: the town on stilts with the drop slides Dugdrob and Vildfål.
