The park is best known for its wooden roller coaster, Rutsjebanen. It is one of world's oldest wooden roller coasters that is still operating today. 


Another roller coaster, Dæmonen (The Demon), features an Immelmann loop, a loop, and a Zero-G roll all during the ride time of just one minute and forty six seconds. Dæmonen is situated next to the concert hall.
