Voted best amusement park in the world in 2025, Europa Park is a must-see destination for all thrill-seekers! And the good news for Parisians is that, since the end of 2022, a direct TGV line from Paris makes it possible to reach the park in just 2.5 hours!
Forget Disneyland: the world’s best park is just 2h30 from Paris
Located just a few dozen kilometers from the French border, Europa Park was voted the world’s best theme park for the tenth time in 2025. The title salutes the quality of the attractions, the creativity of the worlds, the richness of the shows and the exceptional immersion that the park has been developing for several decades. It now takes less than three hours to get from Paris to the gates of this extraordinary place, before taking the short shuttle bus.
Known for its ambience, Europa Park is made up of an immense mosaic of settings inspired by European countries. Each district has its own atmosphere, architecture and gastronomy. As you stroll along, you can go from a bright Italian street to a Nordic atmosphere, before stumbling into a Greek village or a French quarter.
But Europa Park’s biggest strength remains its attractions. From Silver Star and Wodan to Blue Fire and Voltron, recently voted the world’s best roller coaster, rollercoasters are a dime a dozen here, as are the many attractions for which the park is renowned.
Europa-Park’s other strength lies in its ability to offer a true family experience. Younger guests can enjoy specially designed zones, narrative shows, accessible rides and themed areas, where everything seems designed to arouse their curiosity. Families can also enjoy scenic trails, live shows and seasonal parades. The park also continues to expand with Rulantica, its immense aquatic universe, which completes the offer with pools and giant slides. In short, there’s something for everyone.
So for a thrill-filled adventure, head for the Gare de l’Est station to the Ringsheim stop!
