Tips & Tricks

To make your visit to Baumgartner-Casino Park memorable, a few things can help. If you're coming with children, especially on a warm day, pack swimsuits for the water playground's fountains.

Bring a picnic. The park has plenty of green space for a blanket and an outdoor meal. This is a convenient, budget-friendly option for lunch or snacks.

For quiet relaxation, wander along the park's walking paths. You'll see flower beds, which make a nice backdrop for a walk or a break.

If you want to see the mist-spraying whale at the water playground, check the weather. It only comes on when it's over 25°C.

Best Times to Visit

For the best experience, especially with children, summer is ideal. The water playground's fountains and mist-spraying whale are on, which is great when it's over 25°C.

If you prefer a quieter visit, spring and autumn are good times to see the flower beds. Weekday mornings are usually quieter, perfect for a relaxed walk or picnic.

It's more active during weekends and hot afternoons. The park, especially the pirate playground and Viking ship, gets busy with families.
