Local tips

  • Arrive at opening time on weekend and holiday dates to ride the major coasters and water attractions before queues build up in the afternoon.
  • Pack a picnic or snacks; outside food is allowed in designated areas and the park has plenty of grassy spots and tables for relaxed breaks.
  • Bring spare clothes or quick-drying layers for children if they plan to hit the rafting and water rides repeatedly on warm days.
  • Check height requirements for key coasters in advance to avoid disappointment, and measure children’s height before queuing for big rides.
  • Factor in the parking fee and online ticket prices when budgeting; booking dated tickets in advance can be cheaper than paying at the gate.

Getting There

  • Regional train and bus from Copenhagen

    From central Copenhagen, take a regional train toward Næstved; typical journeys take about 1–1.5 hours with frequent departures throughout the day. From Næstved station, connect to a local bus toward Holmegaard that stops near BonBon-Land, adding around 15–25 minutes. A combined one-way adult fare usually falls in the range of 120–170 DKK depending on ticket type and time of day, and services operate year-round but can be less frequent in the late evening.

  • Car from Copenhagen or Køge

    Driving from Copenhagen via the main motorways to BonBon-Land generally takes 1–1.5 hours depending on traffic, while starting from Køge can reduce the journey to around 45–60 minutes. The route uses major roads all the way to Holmegaard and is straightforward in most weather. Parking is available in the park’s own car park for a fixed daily fee of about 60 DKK per vehicle, and spaces can fill near opening time on peak summer and holiday days.

  • Train, taxi and rideshare from Næstved area

    If you are staying in or near Næstved, local trains link neighbouring towns in 10–20 minutes, after which a pre-booked taxi or app-based rideshare from Næstved station to BonBon-Land typically takes 10–15 minutes. Depending on time of day and demand, expect a one-way taxi fare in the region of 150–250 DKK for the vehicle, which can be economical when shared by a family or small group. This option is especially useful when bus timetables are limited outside the main park season.

  • Cycling from nearby villages

    For visitors based in nearby villages such as Fensmark or in the countryside around Holmegaard, reaching BonBon-Land by bicycle is feasible in roughly 20–40 minutes along mostly flat terrain. Surfaces are a mix of smaller roads and cycle-friendly stretches common in rural Denmark. This is a low-cost option with no direct fees beyond possible bike rental, but it is best suited to confident cyclists and is more comfortable in dry, mild weather with good daylight.

A candy factory that became a cheeky theme park

BonBon-Land began life as a Danish candy brand with deliberately outrageous names, and that mischievous spirit still shapes everything you see around you. The park grew out of a popular sweets factory into a fully fledged amusement park in the early 1990s, expanding step by step across the flat countryside of South Zealand near Næstved. Today, its entrance leads straight into a world where larger‑than‑life versions of those original confectionery characters set the tone: irreverent, silly and proudly unpolished. As you wander the main avenues, it becomes clear that this is not a glossy, generic park. Statues, signboards and facades lean into toilet humour and exaggerated animals, a reflection of the Danish fondness for tongue‑in‑cheek jokes that children and adults can share. The result is a place that feels distinctively local, rooted in a specific brand story rather than an imported franchise.

Rides from toddlers’ first thrills to serious G‑forces

The ride lineup stretches from calm carousels to intense coasters, making it easy for mixed‑age groups to stay entertained together. Younger children are drawn to spinning cups, mini coasters and gentle circuit rides themed around turtles, worms or comical critters. Many of these sit close together in open plazas, so adults can keep an eye on siblings darting between attractions. Older kids and thrill seekers gravitate toward headline rides such as the looping coaster Hankatten and the formidable Vild-Svinet, known for its beyond‑vertical first drop and punchy changes of direction. Elsewhere in the park, raft rides and log‑flume style attractions add splashes and soaked clothes to the mix, especially on warm days. The variety allows you to ramp up the intensity gradually, testing nerves one level at a time.

A bizarre menagerie of statues and visual jokes

Beyond the ride hardware, BonBon-Land’s most memorable elements are its sculptures and sight gags. Throughout the grounds you encounter outlandish scenes of vomiting rodents, seagulls aiming at open‑mouthed reptiles and animals caught in deliberately embarrassing situations. Many are animated or accompanied by sound effects, turning pathways into an ongoing visual punchline. The park mascot, a long‑suffering dog with a notorious digestive problem, appears on signposts, merchandise and even a themed roller coaster, where trains twist through mounds of stylised droppings to a soundtrack of exaggerated noises. It is deliberately crude, yet presented with such cartoonish exaggeration that it becomes more surreal than offensive, and offers an insight into Denmark’s relaxed approach to humour.

Green spaces, indoor corners and room to pause

Despite the brash theming, BonBon-Land occupies a surprisingly green site. Lawns, trees and small lakes break up the clusters of rides, and there are several picnic lawns where families spread out with packed lunches. This greenery softens the visual chaos and makes it easier to retreat from the noise for a while, especially with younger children who need breaks. When the weather turns, covered arcades, indoor play areas and the Fantasy World walkthrough offer refuge from wind or showers. These interior spaces are packed with mechanical figures, colourful scenes and interactive elements that continue the playful universe without relying on high speeds. On cooler days, this balance between outdoor rides and sheltered attractions keeps the park workable across much of the season.

Food, sweets and a distinct Danish flavour

Food outlets are scattered around the park, serving familiar theme‑park staples such as burgers, pizza, fries and ice cream, alongside a café with lighter options and hot drinks. Portions lean generous and family‑oriented, with plenty of kid‑friendly combinations. For many visitors, however, the real highlight lies in the candy shops, where you can browse vast selections of BonBon sweets in every shape and playful name imaginable. A day here feels unmistakably Danish: relaxed, slightly anarchic and unconcerned with polished perfection. Staff move between rides, snack bars and game stands, and families often arrive prepared with picnic baskets to supplement meals from the kiosks. By evening, after hours of queuing, shrieking, laughing and wandering between rides, the last stop is often the candy shelves, stocking up on take‑home treats that extend the park’s eccentric universe long after you leave.

Planning your ideal day in the park

The park’s size is large enough to fill a full day but compact enough to cross several times without feeling overwhelmed. Many visitors start with the biggest coasters soon after opening, before lines grow, then shift toward mid‑intensity rides and water attractions during the warmer middle of the day. Green spaces and playgrounds become natural pause points for tired legs, and the indoor zones are handy reserves if a shower passes over. Ticket structures typically include unlimited access to rides once inside, making it easy to repeat favourites without keeping track of individual fees. Seasonal events, temporary shows and character appearances are layered on top of the permanent attractions, adding reasons to linger in specific corners of the park. However you sequence it, the experience is less about sleek spectacle and more about surrendering to a slightly outrageous, thoroughly Danish amusement world.
