Trips With Kids

Mammoths near Poznan

Saturday afternoon was spent at DELI Park – a family, educational and fun park. This park is located on the outskirts of Wielkopolski National Park near the restaurant Delicjusz, on national road No. 5 between Stęszew and Poznan.

The park has many attractions for children. Among the vegetation (which is still growing), we can find:

  • miniatures of famous buildings from around the world (including Mount Rushmore, World Trade Center, Machu Picchu)
  • Models of animals living in the Ice Age (mammoths)
  • enlarged models of insects (including protected species in Wielkopolski National Park)
  • mini zoo – and its domestic animals, peacock, turkey, sheep, alpacas, kangaroos, lemurs
  • children’s playgrounds
  • sky-village (small town located in the form of educational platforms hung on the trees in the neighboring forest)
  • fountain, bridges, rates, small river

The park launched a train line for children. Tickets include one ride on this cable train and also one ride on mechanical horse.

In addition to the open area there is also a covered part. There we find a large playground and educational games on touch screens hanging on the walls. Games refer to the subject of the Ice Age – the main character is a mammoth.

They accept all discount cards for large families. Poznan, municipal, nationwide. It’s a nice gesture, though, even though the admission price is excessive.

Pros:

  • a lot of activities for kids
  • Education combined with fun

Cons:

  • price
  • wind (for an open space it is very windy)

You can see that the park has good conditions to develop. In a few years, the bushes will grow and shelter visitors from the wind. It will be a cool place to spend all day with the children in the fresh air.
