The most unusual attraction is Starflyer: it takes thrill-seekers to a height of 72 meters. It offers stunning views of the lake, city beach and endless green forests. In 2013, a new attraction opened - the Atreenalin rope park with trails of varying levels of difficulty. It is designed for children, but the most difficult trails will also be interesting for adults. The tradition of bringing new surprises to park visitors every year continued in 2014: the city opened its own water park with swimming pools, the water temperature of which is 25 degrees in any weather. There is an affordable cafe on the territory of the water park.
