Falken, Wooden roller coaster in Fårup Summer Park, Denmark
Falken is a wooden roller coaster in Fårup Summer Park with 622 meters of track that climbs to 20 meters high and reaches speeds of 75 kilometers per hour. The ride features a traditional wooden framework with dips and curves that carry passengers through the park.
Falken was added to Fårup Summer Park in 2004, marking the start of an expansion phase for the facility. The park itself began in 1975 with basic children's rides before expanding to include modern attractions.
The ride reflects how Danes approach family entertainment by blending mechanical thrills with natural surroundings. You can see this philosophy at work as the coaster moves through the summer park's trees and open spaces.
Riders must be at least 150 centimeters tall to ride this coaster. The park operates only during the summer season, so plan your visit accordingly.
The wooden construction creates different riding experiences depending on how weather and temperature affect the wood throughout the season. Warmer or colder days change how the structure responds and how the ride feels.
