Europa-Park opens Silver Lake City” – free and full of adventure!

On May 30, 2025, Europa-Park in Rust opened the new “Silver Lake City” themed world. This expansion represents a significant step in park manager Roland Mack's renovation plan.

This allows guests to enjoy the various attractions without paying an entrance fee. The “Silver Lake City” includes 68 caravan sites and 36 western-style cabins that can accommodate four to six people. The capacities of the new facility are designed so that around 2,000 guests can stay overnight once it is completed.

Attractions and events
