    I live only a 40-minuite drive away from Kolmården and been there multiple times a year my whole life, and it never gets old! I also worked there for summer and it's a wonderful working environment. And I think it's also important to say that they take GREAT care of their animals, love seeing pictures on their instagram from the elefants taking a walk in the forest or a tapir enjoying a pumpkin as enrichment on Halloween.
    It's acually not that hard to get to the park by bus, they have a stop just by the park called "djurparken" (zoo in swedish). You can take the bus straight from the Central station in Norrköping, usually there is one bus every 30 minutes.

    I live in the same region as Kolmarden and one of my oldest memories is from that zoo. Thirty years back and I was five years old. I got lost from my family in the crowd and I still remember so clearly that I thought there was no point in panicking. I sat down against a tree and looked at the animals behind the closest fence. A few minutes in a guard drives up to me and says something like "You´re Patrick right? I´m positive your parents are looking for you, little man." I sat down in his little 4-wheeler and minutes later I was reunited with my family. Mind you, we´re five siblings so only one lost is a win.

    I visit Kolmården a lot, I have family living in the area. The zoo is just amazing, I've been to quite a few large zoo's around the world but Kolmården is special. It doesn't have that "animal in cages" feel to it. It's open, fresh and clean. The animals are healthy, the crew is happy and for the amount of people visiting every single day, a surprisingly low amount of screaming children. The dolphin show and the reptile/shark house is top notch.

    To anyone wanting to go here, i recommend that you visit during Halloween. They have night-open and amazing events with animals and others, bring a jacket because its a bit cold during October here!
    Edit: If you choose the road trough Krokek you don't have to touch any gravel roads and there is even a buss that goes twice an hour from Norrköping Centralstation for around 2 dollars one way. The snowleopard is one of the rarest animals at zoo's and has one of the most beautiful enclosures there so that is a must-visit.
    If anyone has any unorthodox questions then feel free to ask, i go to this park once a month.

      The parking system used in Kolmården is the most common in Sweden, so we swedes are very used to it. You se this system everywhere in Sweden so it should definetly be something tourists are more informed about!

    I love Kolmården! Its the best zoo in sweden maybe in the world. I love riding Wildfire and love seeing animals, its just a perfekt place to visit. The Safari thing was the best part of the actuall Zoo while Wildfire was the best roller coaster atraction there and all of the chows wer awsome! One that Tailur missed was the Dolfin chow next to Wildfire, this one chows dolfins doing amazing tricks and jumps splashing the croud with water. So all of you guys who love dolfins go check it out its beutifull! And to wrap things up this park is one of my favorit and I highly recomend a visit some time

    Wow, I've Heard of Kålmården for so many years and I'm a Swede not living that far away from it really. Still had no idea about that roller coaster or the what animals they have. Looks like a really nice day trip even for an adult. I think most just see it as a place for the smallest kids.

    • @CoasterStudios

      It takes away part of your attention from the ride because part of you is focusing on the video, but it doesn't make the ride not enjoyable by any means!

    1:50 I do not know where you were driving but there are pretty straight paved roads to Kolmåden so I would consider it a false statement to call it obscure. But I suppose the GPS prefere the quickest way and choose the forest roads instead of the meant to be used roads.

    • @CoasterStudios

    hoping that the columbus zoo pulls smth like wildfire (maybe not necessarily an rmc) bc it seems like theyre planning on diversifying with a solid water park, one of the best zoos in the country, and they're seemingly trying to add a fully-fledged amusement park section to make it a triple destination but it only has 1 like kiddie roller coaster and theyve only talked about adding flat rides so i hope they add like a full-scale thrill coaster someday. the columbus zoo is like almost 600 acres too so theyre not pressed for space really

    I was there yesterday and my family wanted to go there to see the animals and ride Wildfire bc we can’t go to Liseberg as usual and when we are at the entrance it says on a little sign ( Wildfire is closed for today replaced with CANDYTRAIN in bamse landet. At that point my dad wanted to go home and then get free entry tikets next time we go there. I was also really upset about that bc it didn’t stood in any website or anything.
    BUT IT WAS SO AWESOME TO SEE AL ANIMALS ANYWAYS ❤️❤️❤️

    What You can do at Kolmården is to sleep in a tent in the middle of the park. Then you get to walk on a guided tour at night through the park, feed the lions yourself while in a small bunker in the ground just a few meter away. Feed the ostriches and the giraffes as well. Of course this cost a lot of money but it is really exiting

    The parking lot is pretty obvious for us swedes since most parking lots have ticket machines here in Sweden. If you're not from sweden then obviously it's abit hard to understand since it's a totally different language of course. Also there's a highway that leads directly to the park... I never even knew there was a country road leading to it.

    Kolmården is mean to be a semi-hiking experience. You're meant to take it slow and enjoy the scenery and perhaps take a break for lunch or a picnic with your family halfway. It's meant to be a journey. I've been there a few times but that was probably 25 years ago now.

      Yes but I'm not totally convinced that was the reason- they actually had a skyride before that as well (although not the same one).
      I'm not sure how frequently that occured though, except of course the well known case in 1982- when a tourist got the idea to go pet a lion cub, he was killed by a lion.
      There also been som reports where lions attacked cars- but caused no physical injury to any person.
