Some good advice: buy your tickets in advance!

Plopsa aims at obtaining maximum security for its visitors; therefore we give this aspect all the attention that’s needed. All our attractions are checked and tested daily by the park’s technical service. Furthermore they all comply with the most stringent standards imposed by Belgian law and/or the German TÜV.
With the exception of the Wienerwalz and the SpringFlyer swing rides, the Pirate Ship, and the Anubis coaster all the attractions have been designed for children measuring 1 meter and more, either accompanied by an adult or not. Thanks to the clever park design our youngest visitors can horse around uninhibited and in all safety. And also the park’s regulations and the special guide for the disabled have been drawn up in such a way, that we can guarantee all visitors the highest security at all times.
Plopsa asks its visitors to wear proper (outer) clothes, not only for reasons of hygiene, but also for security reasons and out of respect for the children and the other visitors.
