The Eis-Greissler adventure park in Krumbach offers an exciting destination for families. In addition to delicious, homemade ice cream, visitors can expect a varied park with adventure playgrounds, slides and a petting zoo. Children can play here while adults enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and learn more about sustainable ice cream production.
The Eis-Greissler in Krumbach, Lower Austria, is a small adventure park that is beautifully situated in the middle of the Bucklige Welt. In total, there are over 15 attractions included. The following areas are distinguished: adventure park, ice time travel and gastronomy. But first things first.
The adventure park is ideal for children aged 3 and over, as they are otherwise too small for many of the rides, but of course they are allowed in. Here are a few of the highlights:
Play, splash, refresh: your children will hardly be able to get away from the three fun water adventure playgrounds on hot days.
The raft pond is particularly popular with children. Here you can raft right across the lake. There is no need to be afraid, the pond is about 70cm deep. Smaller children should of course wear water wings. You can splash around carefree at the cone spray station or at the water playground, the floor is well covered with rubber mats - here young guests can experience hours of water fun at any age. Don't forget to bring your swimming gear!
This roller coaster is visible from the parking lot. Children aged three and over and 90cm tall can ride it. You go three laps per queue. Tip: pay attention to the signs: it only moves slowly, so you could easily end up waiting in line for half an hour or more. But it's always fun, whether for young or old!
New in the adventure park: The “Milkshaker”, a free fall tower over 10 meters high, controlled by the mascot cow Rubi. An adrenaline rush for ages 3 and up!
2 huge bouncy cushions invite you to bounce, and you can climb up onto another one. Very nice in theory, but the lack of shade means that the plastic gets very hot in the summer and you are not allowed to go up there with shoes on...
On the breathtaking giant slide, you whizz down 35 meters from the tower with jute sacks. There are a few steps to climb before you get there, but the descent is a real pleasure and well worth it!
Grab a wooden ball (take one with you or buy it for 2 euros). You can try your luck on a total of three ball tracks or compete in a ball race with your friends. We find it a bit impractical that the ball often falls off the track and then rolls down the hill next to the track...
Suitable for all ages.
Here you can throw axes or balls into a basket or hole and show how skilled you are.
Of course, there are also various children's playgrounds with swings, slides, sandpits, maypole carousels and more. There are also a few goats, sheep and rabbits
At the snack stand and in the Shake Barn you will really only find small things like frankfurters, schnitzel sandwiches, fries, mozzarella sticks and the like. Of course there is also plenty of delicious ice cream. If you want a table and a chair, you have to go to restaurantThe restaurant is located outside the theme park, but you can get back in with a stamp.
If you want to have a table at lunch, you must reserve at least 24 hours in advance, otherwise you will probably have no chance.
This is a virtual tour through the history of ice and the Eis-Greissler production. Admission is extra and costs about 12.9€ for children and 15.9€ for adults. Here you can find all prices.
This tour lasts 1 hour, covers three stops and offers a fascinating experience:
Overall, we found the visit very entertaining. It is exciting for children between 3 and around 13 years old. The highlight for us is the water world, especially on hot days. Speaking of hot. Unfortunately, there is one big downside here, namely the shade. Even if they try to remedy the situation with fitted sheets, there is clearly not enough shade in the park and the trees are simply too small. Make sure you take plenty of sunscreen and hats with you!
It was simply too hot for some of the attractions. However, the ice cream tastes great and they clearly make an effort to entertain the littlest guests. You certainly won't get bored.
The ice journey through time was very nice for a one-time visit, but to be honest it was a bit overpriced. If you've seen it once, that's enough.
But we will definitely come back to the theme park.
