In the woods, up a windy road, this 'human powered' amusement park is worth the drive. It's fun…read morefor children and adults alike. Just bring along your sense of adventure and fun! The park opens at 10:30, and we arrived shortly after that, but the parking lot was almost already full, so come early. Parking is under the trees, nice on a hot summers day, and there are plenty of waste bins throughout the parking area for soda cans and the like. We brought along some bottled water and fruit for a quick snack between rides. We visited in August when the restaurant was not open. A few people brought their own food and when we first arrived, there was a stack of cardboard on the bar that people were writing their names on and the number of people in their party - then they set these on a table to 'reserve' it for their lunch. The bar was open a little before lunch time and the line for drinks and fries, the only 'food' item we saw, was very, very long. I can not say what food was actually available, but check their website for restaurant times. The park is in several sections, all under the trees. Directly behind the restaurant begins with trampoline, swings and slides of many sizes from small child to several stories up. All the rides take some man power. Many are easy, a few require a LOT of strength. To the side of the restaurant are a few more rides and play areas. Although there were many people in the park it never felt crowded and we hardly had to wait for any ride. The largest slide requires a bit of rug beneath you to assist in the decent. I found the small rug samples provided would slip out from under and I got a bit of a friction burn on my arm trying to control the decent without the carpet. You get some speed on that slide. The one on the far left seems to be the fastest ride down! If you happen to have a small, narrow carpet you can bring for this ride I recommend you do so. Most of us 'lost' our carpet on the way down! Some of the more adventurous rides required the assistance of a staff member and were not open during our visit. We spent about 2 hours in the park. It was a lot of fun and we adults felt like kids again. I was a bit sore the next day from using muscles I hadn't in a while, but it was all good fun and totally worth the trip!

Club Krystal is a very well designed and decorated swingers playground hidden in an office /…read moreindustrial park. It is located a couple of hours drive away from Venice, so I had to rent a car. At first I was really nervous because I didn't really know where I was. But after meeting the host Alessandro, I felt much better. Alessandro spoke English. He had a warm, soothing and welcoming personality. He gave me a tour and introduced me to everyone. The place is well staffed and the security in suits were silently ever so present, making me feel very safe. The place is modern, stylish and dimly lit. They have a large main area with dance floors and a cage which I liked. The music is great. They have many playrooms with different themes which were arranged in a maze / labyrinth-like pattern, so it's fun to just go round and round to peek / explore. They do serve alcohol, and the bartenders are friendly but do not accept any tips. The best part of all were the other members there. They were fit and in shape and took pride in their dress and appearance. The women looked very sophisticated, but were pleasant when I approached them. The only problem for me was that I do not speak any Italian at all! And none of the members seemed to speak English. So I tried to communicate with simple English and gestures. I had originally only planned to stay an hour or two to check the place out, but I had such a wonderful time that I accidentally stayed 4 or 5 hours. I was there on a Friday, but I was told that Saturdays were great too, especially for couples. Unfortunately, my vacation was too short to allow me enough time to return on Saturday.

Beautiful artificial lake surrounded by the mountains in the heart of Valcellina…read more I came here on a cold winter day and truly enjoyed my visit. The lake has incredibly green water- you can see a lot of swans and the mountains reflecting on the water, which wakes for a great photo-op.There are several trails that offer incredible views of the lake and the mountains. It's an ideal place for a family outing or a walk with friends. The village of Barcis is also very picturesque.

This is one of the most magical places I've ever seen. The water is the most fantastical turquoise…read more It seems unreal. It's nestled in a tiny little mountain town and the views are great. The water is cold as can be. It's a quiet town. A few little shops and a few restaurants. We were here in late spring June 4th. We hear it's much busier in July and August.

We visited Terme di Giunone while on vacation from California, and it was such a wonderful…read moresurprise! My 4 kids (17, 15, 12 and 10) wanted a break from the beach and after some quick research we ended up at Terme di Giunone. Tucked away in the countryside with beautiful greenery and the sound of cicadas all around, it felt so peaceful yet fun for the kids. Super affordable, plenty of space, free parking, free lounge chairs, and even a great snack bar. The water slides were a huge hit (no swim cap required there, which our kids loved. Caps ARE required for all other pools). A perfect break from Lake Garda. We're so glad we made the drive, highly recommend !

This is one of the few indoor places in the Pordenone area. The hours are 15:30-19:30 weekdays…read moreexcept Tuesday's when closed. Weekends it is additionally open 10:30-14:00. Cost was 5 Euro for a 2 year old. They also have group packages and birthday parties. There are a bunch of inflatable castles and soft blocks to throw around. There is also a climbing castle with slides. You can easily spend 2-3 hours here with a young one. Bonus for the bar at the entrance with snacks, coffee and alcoholic beverages. Make sure to bring an extra pair of socks or indoor shoes as the children have to take their shoes off and can be cold in the winter.
