Family trip to Oldenburg with children. Ideas on where to go with your child

One of the largest cities in Lower Saxony - Oldenburg - is a great option for a family holiday. Here, besides numerous attractions (Oldenburg Castle, the Town Hall, St. Lambert's Church), children will like entertainment centers and parks where you can have a nice walk or picnic. Outdoor activities ideal for the whole family include zipline, golf, SUP-boarding.

The first place to go with kids while in Oldenburg is Olantis Huntebad Water Park. The complex houses a swimming pool, three water slides, a pool for the smallest ones, and a "rapid river". It is very well maintained and clean, due to which it's a pleasure to spend time here. On the outskirts of the city is another wonderful canter - Freizeitzentrum Hatten. This is an outdoor pool, so it is only available in summer. The water center offers a campsite, a playground, and a climbing wall - all one might need for enjoying active leisure. Apart from that, in late July or early August, Freizeitzentrum Hatten hosts an annual children's festival. If you happen to visit the city at this time, don't miss your chance to get a charge of positive emotions.

Wild- und Freizeitpark Ostrittrum Zoo can also be found on the outskirts. Here, among green landscapes striking in their beauty, you can see alpacas, beavers, goats, turkeys, and monkeys. Kids will be offered to play on a specially equipped playground and slide down a pirate ship. Another zoo is equally noteworthy. This one is also located in the vicinity of the city and is called Tier- und Freizeitpark Thüle. The park is perfectly equipped so visitors can easily cover its entire area. As for animals living here, these are lions, hippos, ostriches, deer, kangaroos, muskrats, tapirs, possums. Kids will also appreciate playgrounds located in the park. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

Spend time actively in Kletterwald Nord where young travelers can get an amazing experience and feel like mountaineers climbing trees. It is worth noting that the park is very beautiful and ready to strike visitors' imagination from the very first glance. There are several levels of difficulty, and brief training is provided before every climb. Kraxelmaxel is another climbing center providing pre-training where you can have a great time. Its courses are a bit more difficult compared to the above park and are suitable for more experienced climbers.

It is definitely worth taking kids to Schwarzlicht Golf 3D that will primarily amaze them with its beautiful design. It is also a great place to celebrate a children's birthday - any child will be thankful for their parents who gave them such a memorable day. Have a lot of fun in Fußballgolf where golf and football are available for visitors, as is clear from the name. Kids will also enjoy a playground in Freistäetter Feldbahn located on the outskirts of the city. The center is well equipped, so children will have the opportunity to ride a roller coaster, climb structures, and have a bite to eat at a picnic.

Dschungelboot Indoorspielplatz is another great playground immediately attracting children with its wonderful design. The opportunities it provides include mountaineering, climbing structures, slides (including water slides in an outdoor pool in summer), small cars, a ball pit. You can also have a snack right on the spot. Among other remarkable playgrounds is Bremer Abenteuerland perfect for the smallest kids who will be immediately fascinated by its bright design. Children are entertainment by animators, and the entertainment available includes a roller coaster, toy cars, and trampolines. This center is often chosen for children's parties.

The city has several good museums that kids will love. These are the Computer-Museum telling about the history of computers, the Kreismuseum Syke that keeps a lot of antiques and handmade things, as well as hosts children's events quite often. It is worth bringing the kids to Gelateria Centrale San Marco (where they will be happy to taste the best ice cream in town), Appeltje Eetcafe & Patisserie (where one should pay attention to wonderful cakes and pastries), as well as Espressobar Kaffeekunst (wonderful cocktails and pies await all kids). And for the final, visitors to the city can go to Oldenburger Schlossgarten or Botanischer Garten - here you can relax after an eventful day in Oldenburg.
