We always visit here when in Skien since our first was just a baby. Our most recent trip our kids were 3/5/7 and everyone had a blast. The facilities make it easy to go through the Locke rooms and showers as a family. There is a fun splash pool for little kids, one slide our 3 yo could go down alone (with supervision) and big waterslide everyone enjoyed with the 3 + 5yo going down with one of us parents. There are other activities but we haven’t explored those yet. We wanted to do the Klatrepark (climbing park) but ended up with rain the last part of our trip.

Large facility with many possible different activities, great trails for both walking and cycling in the woods by. A little washable to get an overview, partly because maps and meadows do not match completely after the construction of a new climbing park. Especially the frisbee golf course is difficult to find as several of the first holes have been moved / changed. Pool with long water slide, diving board of 1.3.5 and 10 meters as well as wave pool and stream channel is a favorite among children

It wasn't first time we visited Skien Fritidspark but this time we decided to try SPA. We bought tickets and we were so happy to have some time off to relax. Once we came up stairs to SPA first thing we saw was at half of saunas was out of service or they didn't turn it on at all! Wehn we contacted one of the staff they ignored us and mean it the saunas was ok. I was in many saunas and I know when one of it doesn't work properly or doesn't work at all! So long story short - if you wanna waste Your many so try theirs SPA...

The positiv thing about rest og the Skien Fritidspark / water park was quite nice.

Dear Kajkot,

Thank you for your recommendation. Sorry to hear that the saunas did not work - they normally do.
We would like to invite you back to test out the Wellness area once more. People love it.

Happy to hear that you enjoyed the waterpark.

This Waterpark managed to underwhelm me. It's OK but not more. I find it strange that they have a more communal locker room where you see women and men mingle. Sure, you get a private booth with to change but it is unusual.

The food is as everything else, pricey! The choice of activity is fairly basic. The slide is fun, the pools ok, the jumping tower pool is probably fun if you like that stuff.

We'll be back but mainly because we live here. Then again, my boys weren't overly impressed so maybe we won't.

A great place to go with young children. The water park has 6 pools, including a wave pool, and has several options to have an excellent day.
For a family of 5 we paid 425 to get in. The food inside is not very expensive. You can get a burger for around 80 nok and a pizza for 110 nok.
We arrived at 11.00 on a Saturday and there was not a lot of people. Easy to find chairs and sun loungers and we had a lot of space in the pools. It started to get more people after around 14.00 but still not very busy.
Definitely a great day and definitely recommended.
