Grand opening on July 12:
“Energy Gems & Goblin Plunder – The Labyrinth”

Now it’s getting puzzling, mysterious, and crystal clear: On Saturday, July 12, 2025, at 11 a.m., Taunus Wunderland will celebrate the grand opening of its newest attraction in the Arya’s Dragon Gorge theme area: “Energy Gems & Goblin Plunder – The Labyrinth” – an interactive adventure full of puzzles, challenging obstacles, and imaginative experiences for the whole family.

In the midst of the magical world of the Gobbis – small, industrious creatures who mine for precious crystals in secret mine tunnels – visitors immerse themselves in a lovingly designed labyrinth. The goal is to discover the hidden energy gems, solve playful tasks, and delve deeper and deeper into the story of Arya’s Dragon Gorge and the world of the Gobbis.

“With this attraction, we are creating an experience that not only moves but also connects – through shared puzzling, discovery, and wonder,” says Otto Barth Junior, park director of Taunus Wunderland. “The maze combines adventure, technology, and storytelling in a whole new way and is a great addition to our existing attractions.”

The maze is designed to delight both younger and older guests alike: obstacles, interactive stations, visual surprises, and plenty of goblin humor ensure an immersive experience in an imaginative mine world.

“Energieklunker & Koboldplunder” complements the Arya’s Dragon Gorge themed area, which has been growing steadily since 2023 and includes existing attractions such as the Gobbi Express (Hesse’s longest roller coaster), the indoor attractions Energy Factory, and Baumberth’s Water Playground.

Enjoy a day out at Taunus Wunderland

Visiting the leisure park Taunus Wunderland means “Visit nature – experience adventure”. Here is where the young ones mount a ride for their first time together with their families to experience a breathtaking roller-coaster trip, dynamically turning round in circles or riding the water channel. All there is to experience together with Mum or Dad or maybe Grandma and Grandpa will be the highlights of the family album!

A host of rides for all ages

There’s a whole variety of rides, to suit different ages and temperaments: from fast, adventurous, scary to more gentle, magical, mysterious. Even the smallest child will enjoy a carousel ride, being a pirate, playing on a climbing frame, or challenging dad to a water fight. American Indians paddle their kayaks, dragons hide behind giant boulders, ghosts are lurking in the haunted house!

Wild Water Slide

For the most adventurous, those who dare can plunge more than 22 meters down a giant water slide, the “Traubenrutsche”. Who’s brave enough to ride the pirate ship, too scary for me? Listen to the screams! Or the Silberpfeil, the highest slide in the whole of Hessen. Or the Big Scooter, only for those who love the thrill of speed.

The Wilde Maus roller coaster

is situated in the middle of a wood and the curves are gentle enough for the whole family but high and and steep enough to feel in your stomach and knees.

Knall+Fall (Rock and Drop Free Fall Tower)

The 17 meter high multi-motion tower went into operation in summer 2010. The first ride of its kind in Europe, passengers are transported up the tower while at the same time rocking from side to side; on reaching the top the tower leans forwards and after a sllght pause the gondola drops in free fall at a speed of 3 meters per second. The most modern security systems ensure absolute safety and fun and thrills for the whole family.

Millions of years ago mighty dinosaurs ruled the primeval forests and jungles. Welcome to Dinoland.

Young children will enjoy petting the tame animals in the petting zoo.

Wunderland Snackbar & the Crèperie
