Amusement park in the Taunus, North of Frankfurt. As a parent, I give the Lochmühle top marks. It's…read moreclean, well maintained, and offers parents the opportunity to just chill out while the kids run wild. For groups, there are Grill huts in varying sizes (need to reserve ahead of time). The larger ones can accomodate 25-30 people and the beauty is, you can bring all of your own food and drinks and you don't have to schlepp it around the park in a rucksack. The rides are pretty much for kids age 2-12. Older than that and they'll probably lose interest. Older kids would probably prefer the Taunus Wunderland (see other review). There are also a number of animals including a petting zoo. Even if you don't reserve a grill hut you can pack a picnic blanket and park it next to the small stream or in other grassy areas and just chill out. Prices are very reasonable from my perspective, both for admission and for food prices. This park is not out to gouge you. That being said, the attractions are NOTHING compared to a U.S. style amusement parkthis is, after all, kidstuff.

The whole Family had a great time. We have a son and daughter, ages one and four, and there was…read moreplenty for them to do in the park. We live in Wiesbaden so the drive is fairly quick and there is plenty of parking. The lines are fairly short, particularly in the morning. The day that we went was fairly overcast, So that may have kept some people from showing up. We had lunch there which was reasonably priced and delicious. The park isn't as overbearing on safety like places are in the United States, which was concerning for my wife but I enjoyed it. We look forward to going again!

I believe this park is intended for kids between the ages of 3 and 12. Our kids are almost 2 and 5…read moreand it was perfect. Tickets prices are based on height in cm., and can easily be purchased online. Kids under 100 cm are free. Americans beware, German liability laws are much different, and it's very much "participate at your own risk" park wide. That said, as long as you're exercising smart parenting practices, its pretty awesome! For instance, you can literally control some of the rides as a parent. Many low intensity rides have no staff supervision - you on and off-board whenever the next empty cart rolls up. There's a wide variety of things to do from ball pits to epic slides, a trampoline park, small roller-coaster, petting zoo, legit log ride, and numerous carnival-style-dizzying rides. The food was excellent: high end cafeteria style schnitzel/wurst/burger/fries, along with coffee baristas, flammkuchen, and candy/cotton candy/gelato/popcorn stands. We parents and the kids had a blast. Strongly recommend for parents and kids under 12.

It brings together hundreds of stalls where you can play carnival games, enjoy varieties of food (German classics such as Bratwurst and Currywurst, crépes, noodles, waffles and the usual delicious sweets). You'll even find a Bavarian beer hall to help you prep for Oktoberfest. There's a tonne of fun to be had with the many rides as well, ranging from several "house of horrors" to dodgem cars to spinning rides, shooting rides, roller coasters and the carnival classic strap-people-in-then-throw-them-around-and-spin-up-in-the-air craziness. All-in-all a great time for everyone! Weekends are typically crowded, as is the final evening with the fireworks show at 10pm. If you come for the final day (Tuesday), you'll enjoy some great bargains at the dutch-style plant auctions (pick up a bunch of house plants for your entire apartment for just a handful of Euro!). Entrance is free - just pay per ride (typically €2 - €7,50).
