Mountain idyll and interactive theme park action in Chamonix

Les Planards, the amusement park at over 1,062 meters above sea level, is located in the French vacation region of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc. Close to the border with Switzerland and Italy and with the highest mountain in the Alps always in view, the park attracts many tourists every year, especially families with children. Located on the outskirts of Chamonix, the park is easily accessible and offers a wide range of attractions - including three family rides from Sunkid.

One of these attractions is the Butterfly, designed in green and brown: passengers are first gently pulled upwards and then experience a sweeping pendulum motion at speeds of up to 40 km/h. "The attraction that makes you whirl with joy" is how Les Planards describes the family ride on its website. The adrenaline-filled ride gives children - from the age of four accompanied by an adult and from the age of seven unaccompanied - real butterflies in their stomachs.

Equally popular with young and old alike is the red Nautic Jet, which is particularly popular on hot mountain summer days with its jump into the cool water. Visitors are pulled up a ramp along with the boat before experiencing speeds of up to 40 km/h and flying almost six meters - before landing in the water. The park itself characterizes the ride as "an entertaining and refreshing activity that promises fun for the whole family".

The third Sunkid highlight in Chamonix is the Loopi, where passengers can take the wheel themselves and decide whether the two-seater cabin turns forwards or backwards. The Les Planards website aptly describes it as "the attraction that will turn your head".

The project in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc is a perfect example of how versatile the Sunkid product portfolio is and how it can be used all year round. Here, three family rides - interactive, individually designed and compact in their construction - complement the range of outdoor attractions on the mountain.
