The 185,000-square-metre venue houses the world’s largest thermal bath and spa complex Before the launch of Therme Erding’s aquatic attractions Opened in 1999, Therme Erding features 27 indoor and outdoor slides spanning 2.7km in length. The majority of these were supplied by wiegand.waterrides, a leading water rides and attraction provider Highlights include the longest tube slide in the world and a virtual reality (VR) waterslide experience “The other water parks and spas in Germany are very small,” Marcus Maier, Therme Erding’s general manager, told blooloop. “In my eyes, we are more an entertainment park, like Europa-Park or Phantasialand.” Aquaventure at Atlantis the Palm in Dubai is the largest water park in the world and welcomes 1.8 million visits per year.  The Dubai park is one of three Atlantis Aquaventure attractions It features 79 thrilling slides and water rides Its six water slide complex from WhiteWater was added in 2013 and includes a extraordinary range of features that are unique to the park 17 of the park’s waterslides were provided by ProSlideTechnology  for phase three of the recent Atlantis Aquaventure expansion “The water rides ProSlide installed are second-to-none and are the perfect complement for our vision for Atlantis to be among the world’s best water parks,” said Sascha Triemer He added: “Their technology, innovation, and creative design have brought Atlantis to a completely new and higher level in the destination industry that could not have been achieved with any other water ride manufacturer.” Aquaventure became the Middle East’s first Certified Autism Center (CAC) in 2023. Kelly Timmins, Atlantis Dubai’s director of marine animal operations and sustainability said the CAC accreditation “emphasises our commitment to inclusivity and accessibility.” Therme Bucharest is one of two Therme attractions on the list and reflects a global trend for hybrid wellness and leisure facilities noted in the report combines water park attractions and wellbeing treatments with art the company’s  resorts offer wave pools and waterslides as well as immersive art and botanical gardens In 2024, Therme Bucharest announced that it had received a record number of international guests in the previous year This was accompanied by strong repeat visits from Bucharest residents “With an increased global recognition of the Therme concept 30 percent of visitors to Therme are shown to be guests from outside of Romania,” Therme Group said in a press release Prague’s Aquapalace water park occupies an area of 9,150 square metres, making it the largest in Central Europe. As well as the water park The water park is located in Čestlice and opened in May 2008.  The park features connected indoor and outdoor areas, with rides and attractions that include the longest waterslide in the Czech Republic Aquapalace also has a 450-metre-long winding river and pools in three areas – Palace of Adventures Palace of Relaxation and Palace of Treasures Acquired by Parques Reunidos for €226 million in 2018, Tropical Islands is an indoor water park in Brandenburg Billed as the largest tropical resort in Europe the 66,000-square-metre park opened in 2004 The park can house up to 8,200 visitors daily and features attractions including the longest double racer in the world and the highest waterslide tower in Germany “Germany is a strategic market for Parques Reunidos,” said Richard Golding, chairman of Parques Reunidos “As well as representing a truly unique opportunity in itself Tropical Islands also reinforces our market positioning in the country where together with Movie Park and Belantis we will reach three million visitors.” In 2023, the park added a new themed hotel, Ohana Lodge. Its accompanying social hub includes a restaurant and range of entertainment options Opened in September 2008, Siam Park is a 46-acre water park on the island of Tenerife in Spain’s Canary Islands. The aquatic attraction has been voted the world’s best water park a category now merged with best amusement park in the TripAdvisor Travellers Choice Awards for eight consecutive years.  Siam Park is owned by Wolfgang Kiessling “What other parks do is theming,” his son buy materials and work with local craftsmen so that what we build is authentic.” He added: “We control the ride experience like no other water park in the world We are not plastic fantastic – we are about sensation and emotion.” Attractions at the Siam-themed park include waterslides such as Singha, Kinnaree, Vulcano and the Tower of Power. The Lost City by WhiteWater, a leading water park manufacturer, offers an additional 15 slides The Mai Thai River is one of the longest lazy rivers in the world In 2023, the park opened Saifa a custom-designed Dueling PIPElineBLAST water coaster This extended the park’s slate of ProSlide attractions and continues the relationship between the two companies which has been ongoing since 2008 I would say it’s the most variable water coaster in the world; for every moment of this ride or you’re spiralling – it’s got the same entertainment value as a roller coaster “This is a serious custom design of a duelling water coaster that uses every best attribute and feature that we put together.” Europa-Park’s €180m Rulantica water world opened in 2019 with 25 water attractions, including 17 slides, across 32,600 square metres. Inspired by a fictional Norwegian island Rulantica is the largest single investment in Europa-Park’s history The water park’s centrepiece is the Surf Fjørd wave pool while the Vinterhal ice palace houses most of Rulantica’s biggest attractions Vildstrøm is a wild river, while Snorri’s Saga is the name of the park’s lazy river. The Skip Strand adventure pool includes a sunken ship feature and water obstacle course, and Trølldal is a water playground and shallow pool inhabited by trolls. Rulantica has several themed F&B outlets Jeff Havlik, vice president at Rulantica planner PGAV, a global leader in the planning and design of unique destinations</strong>&amp;amp;amp;lt;/strong> said the park represents “a huge leap in European indoor waterpark architectural design He said: “Focusing on the guest experience at every turn has resulted in an immersive thematic guest experience from the parking lot to even the support spaces like the locker rooms.” Jeff Janovich, vice president of business development for ProSlide said: “In terms of the level of detail the storytelling and environment that they’ve created this is on a par with Disney and Universal Those guys have done it for outdoor water parks but no one’s done it on this level for indoor parks.” Aqualand Moravia is one of two water parks in the Czech Republic to feature in this list. Constructed on the site of ancient Roman baths, Aqualand Moravia features swimming pools, a sauna and other wellness experiences, and various waterslides and aquatic attractions The water park is currently being renovated three new slides and a new water tower opened in 2022 The park’s High Five Master Blaster + Constrictor Fusion won a European Star Award for Best Water Slide in 2022 In 2023, it opened a WhiteWater AquaForms 300 modular aquatic play structure to the indoor park Scandinavia’s largest =”yoast-text-mark” href=””<strong”>tropical water park which is known as the birthplace of Lego and also home to a Legoland resort Lalandia also has water parks in Søndervig and Rødby WhiteWater provided multi-level play structures and water slides to the water park ProSlide Technology Inc, an industry leader in water ride manufacturing and design, supplied several slides for the Søndervig location The Nettebad water park in Osnabrück, Germany provides a family-friendly aquatic experience. Waterslides here include a a ProSlide SuperLOOP dubbed ‘Sloop’ as well as a unique standing slide that lets guests ‘surf’ through the park There is also an aquatic obstacle course and VR snorkelling guests can enjoy a children’s slide and play area More than Just Home to a World-Famous Beer Words:  Owen Ralph Owen Ralph visits Therme Erding in Bavaria in addition to arguably three world-class water parks Located at Brandenburg outside Berlin, Tropical Islands is a huge facility located inside a former Zeppelin hanger. The building alone is a showstopper. Since 2019, Rulantica has offered Europa-Park guests the opportunity to step inside a Nordic-themed water world Yet for sheer variety of slides, saunas and relaxation opportunities, Bavaria’s Therme Erding is untouchable, spanning an area of 185,000 square metres. With around 1.8 million annual guests, it’s also comfortably the country’s busiest water complex outside the town of Erding (home of the famous Erdinger Weissbier) The indoor water park debuted in 2007 and features 19 intertwined attractions of varying intensity Added seven years later was the adjacent South Seas-inspired wave pool Covered by a 2,600 square metre glass roof As swimmers experience waves of five different strengths and up to 2 metres in height they are overlooked by real palm trees and the galleon-like facade of Hotel Victory The hotel’s 128 rooms offer a choice of nautical and palace-like interiors the 94-room Victory Guesthouse opened in 2016 as the facility not only made a highly successful entry into the short break market but also launched an outdoor water park extension It’s this area that really comes alive in summer with its many sun loungers and beach-like relaxation areas In total, Therme Erding’s 27 indoor and outdoor slides span 2.7km in length. The majority were supplied by wiegand.waterrides, a leading water rides and attraction provider Therme Erding functioned purely as a thermal bath facility It is now home to the largest spa complex in the world The 13,363 square metre area comprises 27 ‘textile-free’ saunas and steam baths experiences include everything from authentic Roman Alpine and Finnish saunas to an observatory and even a bakery sauna Bathing is available in a network of five outdoor and indoor pools The central Champagne Pool is covered by a 56m diameter retractable roof Those that prefer to wear a swimming costume may gravitate towards the VitalOase (VitalityOasis) This bridges the water park and the main spa area and features seven saunas as well as whirlpools the 34°C waters of the Vitality Pool are complemented by a terrace pool adjoining the Culinarium restaurant Together the water park and spa areas can accommodate up to 7,000 guests at a time The thermal water that is pumped into the majority of Therme Erding’s pools originates from the Ardeo spring more than 2km below ground The sulphurous water source was discovered in 1983 by Texaco while drilling for oil outside of Erding it was not until October 1999 that phase one of what we now know as Therme Erding opened to the public the Bavarian Ministry of the Environment officially recognised the water source Today the mouth of the spring can be viewed beneath a glass pyramid outside the VitaleOase.  The complex was built at a cost €225 million by the late Josef Wund, who also designed the German pavilion at the 2000 World Expo in Hannover Faced with scepticism of his plans from local politicians he and his son Jörg Wund decided to operate it themselves Mr Wund realised it’s more profitable to run a thermal waterpark than build one,” says Marcus Maier Wund Holding went on to develop smaller but similar facilities elsewhere in Southern Germany including Therme Bad Wörishofen as well as Therme Euskirchen in North Rhine-Westphalia Josef Wund died in a plane crash in December 2017 at the age of 79 Ownership of Therme Erding and Bad Wörishofen also in Bavaria,  then passed to Jörg Wund with Wund Holding retaining control of the other three Today the main spa/sauna area of Therme Erding accounts for around one-third (500-550,000) of its annual attendance The water slides and attractions entertain between 1.2 and 1.3 million Yet there is some overlap since combi-tickets are available versus €46 for just the waterpark/VitaleOase Therme Erding’s total attendance for 2022 was expected to be between 1.5 and 1.6 million since there were still capacity restrictions for the first few months of the year Notable slides and attractions within the Galaxy Slide World include the longest tube slide in the world as well a 67m speed slide on which guests can reach up to 72km/h The outdoor attractions are anchored by the six-lane Rainbow Racer, but for many, the highlight of the entire water park is The Big Wave. This show-stopping hybrid stainless steel water slide was launched in 2019 and comprises two attractions from wiegand.waterrides a Big Bang (funnel) and Sidewinder (halfpipe) this is currently the longest raft waterslide in Germany. With a maximum height of 18m and a top speed of 45 km/h “The outdoor slides are a really good attraction,” says Maier But if you go to other thermal baths when the sun is shining After a brief period of operation in December and subsequent fine-tuning an indoor version of The Big Wave will be launched after Christmas With the exception of a few fibreglass (GFK) chutes, most of Therme Erding’s slides are of stainless steel construction “We are very content with Wiegand,” says Maier “With GFK you always have to be careful because with the joints you can hurt yourself Sometimes the slide control staff have to close the Black Mamba in the morning to make repairs Therme Erding was also one of the first waterparks to offer a virtual reality water slide experience The VRSlide technology employed in Erding was provided by the US firm Ballast whose team was accommodated on-site for one year to perfect the system This was rolled out to two existing indoor slides The headsets use advanced AI to monitor each user’s position and automatically adjust their position within the VR experience. The real-time rendered content guests can bob up and down almost all day long in Therme Erding’s wave pool Developed by API Water Fun based on an original idea by Josef Wund it works by pumping air into the water and sucking it back out again.   “A normal wave machine uses a lot of energy,” says Maier. “We pay about €5 for one hour of waves. In other parks, it’s about €30. So we have the waves running nearly all the time; we just make a break of 10 minutes every hour so no one gets seasick and for the benefit of the employees.” The park’s crazy river is powered by a more rudimentary system using a boat motor This delivers just the right amount of water flow In addition to the suppliers already mentioned Therme Erding works with water technology specialist Atzwanger whose systems are installed in 11 of its pools “The other water parks and spas in Germany are very small,” says Maier. “In my eyes, we are more an entertainment park, like Europa-Park or Phantasialand.” the average length of stay is certainly longer than some water-based facilities What does Maier make of Europa-Park’s entry into the market with Rulantica but people who have been to both tell us we are more like a vacation.” guests can kick back on of many sun loungers or grab a drink from the swim-up bar A four-drink limit minimises any unruly behaviour Cashless wristband payment makes monitoring this possible it’s also a convenient cash-free option for guests The adjacent stage area is the setting for Therme Erding’s regular festivals and events The more serene spa and sauna area tends to attract older guests Whilst 75% of those who visit Therme Erding come from Germany the water destination is gaining a growing following from non-German speaking countries People are coming from more and more countries The two on-site hotels have totally transformed the business model of Therme Erding Although we have some families who stay for four or five days,” says Maier overnight guests travel 250km on average to enjoy the Therme Erding experience With rooms priced from €250 to over €300 per night and waterpark/spa entry extra the facility caters to a relatively affluent guest “In Munich, there are eight or nine DAX [German stock market] companies; there are a lot of people who have a very good income. Also, I think if you are travelling from Hamburg, Switzerland, or Vienna, it’s a vacation or a once-in-a-lifetime experience People like to spend money if it’s something special.” Maier contrasts this to typical thermal baths where You don’t have to stay overnight to enjoy a little extra relaxation or splash the cash at Therme Erding In addition to the 4,500 free sun loungers spread throughout the facility loungers and spaces in the water park/wave pool areas alone there are daytime hideaways to suit every taste and budget Therme Erding fans can even pay to have a plaque with their name on a palm tree The latest offering is 16 palm lounges close to the wave pool but away from the hustle and bustle below This newly-created real estate in the treetops offers comfortable seating a minibar and a Dyson ventilator for up to six guests per lounge four new Alm Chalets will be added over the winter The Therme’s team can’t build such offerings quickly enough “Our most expensive chalet has a whirlpool and costs €199 per day Yet the general manager doesn’t take things for granted. “I always used to say I have the safest job ever. When the pandemic came but you never know what the future brings.” Inevitably: “The last three years have been very anxious for us all “We didn’t get much money from the government And now the situation with energy costs is crazy.” Ticket prices were raised by 25% in 2022 to account for an increase in costs including staff and digital investments such as a new reservation system But you cannot charge everything back to your guests because they are suffering too.” Fresh hotel accommodation will be key to Therme Erding’s growth over the coming years “Without corona, it would be 3 to 4% more,” says Maier. “We have now 500 to 600 beds. Europa-Park has about 5,000 An upgrade is planned to some of the spa facilities following the addition of a new roof over the thermal baths in 2021 “The roof wasn’t holding the water and also the air conditioning was very old,” says Maier but the new roof looks the same as the old one But we are safe now for the next 10 to 15 years because it is now 16 years old,” says Maier “But imagine if we had built a new Slide World and then corona was coming Mr Wund told me it is better to make smaller steps We will wait for another two to three normal years before we make the next really big investment.” More from this author LeRoy | Spring Valley | Grand Meadow | Cresco | Protivin | Riceville | Preston | Wykoff  CONTACT US  | local_floristSEND FLOWERS Therme Erding is the second largest thermal bath complex in Europe at 185,000 square metres (46 acres) It is located 30 minutes drive northeast of Munich and receives around 4000 visitors every day The BIG WAVE is a hybrid stainless steel water slide that combines two of wiegand.maelzer’s most popular slides – the Sidewinder and the Urknall At 180 meters long The BIG WAVE is currently the longest raft waterslide in Germany.  The ride starts up at 18 meters high and at a top speed of 45 km/h riders can reach 3G for an unforgettable adrenaline-filled experience The BIG WAVE was opened with a huge summer party including a live performance from Nico Santos Therme Erding is also home to the VR Slide installed by wiegand.maelzer in Spring 2018 The VR slide combines the thrill of waterslides with the technology of virtual reality. wiegand.maelzer worked with aquatic virtual reality experts Ballast Technologies to design an advanced VR system that can work with any raft waterslide Expertly designed content is accurately mapped to the contours of the slide controlled by a revolutionary tracking system that is easy to install and monitor The real-time rendered experiences enhance rather than overwhelm the rider. The content can easily be refreshed to provide a new experience to encourage repeat visits and repeat rides The unique headset is comfortable, waterproof and easy to maintain. Operator training is kept to a minimum as the system is cloud connected to allow monitoring by wiegand.maelzer. On average a throughput of 120- 180 riders per hour can be achieved There is a minimal amount of installation needed on the slide – just five sensors on average.  The headsets use advanced AI to monitor the rider’s position and automatically adjust their position within the VR experience.  Tracking is independent of wifi or bluetooth to ensure that a poor signal does not disrupt the ride The VR Slide has generated great interest from the media and the public with nearly 10 million new impressions across the German market just around the initial opening It is estimated that the park will recoup investment in just one year Get the latest attractions industry

in other words: something went wrong during maintenance work in Erding although whether it was human or mechanical error is unclear Amadeus is not shedding any further light on the incident - a failure which has surprised a number of figures in the tech community given that most of the systems used by GDSs are usually run in parallel allowing a backup to kick in when a failure is reported Amadeus says it is learning from the incident after making headlines around the world in both the tech and mainstream press For four days at the end of June and the beginning of July the picturesque Bavarian town of Erding and its iconic Kronthaler Weiher lake was abuzz with competitive action and sporting community The 2023 European Biathle/Triathle and Laser Run Championships took over the town from June 28 to July 2 with the mixture of top-class and development athletes giving a feeling of family togetherness.  The organiser of the 2021 UIPM Biathle Triathle WorldChampionships had the strings in his hand Pierre Jander from Team Oberpfalz and board member of the German Federation took up the challenge of organising this international event and was quickly flooded with registrations.  Around 640 participants from 25 Nations had registered — the largest group (188) coming from Great Britain Germany entered the race with 130 athletes followed by Hungary with 70 athletes.  In total there were more than 1600 starts during the 4 days of competition Erding is a city in Bavaria only a few kilometers away from Munich airport Erding also had something else to offer this weekend - the athletes and especially the coaches were happy that the Old Town Festival was taking place at the same time as the championships.  The competition site was compact and very spectator-friendly but also workable for the competitions that UIPM Technical Delegate Karman Sandor had in mind Sports commentator was again Andreas Groß known in Germany as “the voice of Biathle/Triathle/Laser Run” He energised the spectators and gave the athletes goosebumps with his commentary winner of the gold medal in the 40+ Biathle said about Kronthaler Weiher “It is still one of the most beautiful cleanest and warmest lakes I have ever swum in.” Subscribe There are two distinct areas at Therme Erding swimsuit-required Tropical Spa and Water Park This erlebnisbad (adventure pool) consists of a large spa pool area The second area is the textile-free (nude) Vitality Oasis (also called the Vital Therme) only accessible to those 16 and older which has a massive series of spa pools and numerous saunas you will be given a wristband that opens your assigned locker and can be used for any charges at the restaurants or bars You can pay your total bill via credit card before you leave The vast locker room has changing cubicles for privacy Don your swimsuit and make sure everyone is wearing their wristband You will need to tap it on the entry turnstile for the different areas If are heading to the swimsuit-required spa and water park I suggest you stash the rest of your stuff in the locker before following the blue arrows If you are heading to the textile-free (nude) spa then put your robe or towel over your swimsuit Enjoy exploring this huge indoor tropical oasis The water park area boasts 10 big tube slides plus a smaller play area perfect for little kids There is also an outdoor slide area that is closed in the winter Near the wave pool you’ll find access to the heated outdoor spa circuit Across the facility is the spa area where you can take in a facial mud mask If you choose to enter the textile-free zone be prepared for an incredible Roman-themed spa experience After the turnstile you will enter a foyer space where you can stash your swimsuit in one of the cubbies Continue to wear your robe or towel when walking around the spa but take it off and hang it on the hooks when entering a pool or sauna Don’t miss participating in a few of the special programs and ceremonies meditating to a singing bowl or being wafted with intense heat Spend the whole day enjoying family time in the healing waters and exciting pools or submit to total relaxation in the adult area at the Korbinian-Aigner-Gymnasium in Erding © Hubert Burda Media Meine Familie & ich continues its ambitious workshop project in German schools after the successful first round at the European School in Bornheim near Bonn Europe’s biggest food magazine has taken up the cause of inspiring young people to get involved in culinary matters hands-on themselves There is no need to grab a ready-made meal even if everything is meant to be done quickly and easily today and healthy food is really delicious when Jörg Götte 13 students from grades six to eleven had gathered at the school kitchen to create a three-course menu together on Thursday as well as crunchy candies with quark filling and fruit salad “The girls and boys have really thrown themselves into it today” “They were all very concentrated and pitched in brilliantly: whether chopping things cutting up the chickens or tidying up the kitchen and washing up after having lunch together The teachers Barbara Brunner and Alexander Korfhage who offer cooking courses as an elective subject in the school kitchen themselves had asked Meine Familie & ich to come to Erding They are pleased with the very successful morning: Everyone had a lot of fun “I picked up one or two tricks from Jörg as well” “I’ve no idea why I have been peeling and deseeding a melon in such a complicated way so far a lot quicker and more of the melon is left to be eaten as well.” Above 1000 meters in the mountains and in the kitchen you generally use the informal German “Du” teaching and learning works on an equal footing A sense of humor is the main ingredient in the recipe giving it the extra something: “In order to get children and young people excited about cooking you simply need to have fun yourself and not take yourself too seriously insisting on looking over the shoulder of the 12 to 18-year-old junior chefs to see what was in their pots „I’m totally pleased to see that our workshop concept is received so well and other students are motivated to choose cooking courses as an elective subject as well for instance And school directors are inspired to perhaps extend the activities at their schools in this area."

Read our Privacy notice Newcastle will try to sign Paris-St Germain's Turkey striker Mevlut Erding in this transfer window. Manager Alan Pardew was forced to abandon plans to sign Modibo Maiga last month when the Sochaux forward failed a medical – despite a £7m fee having already been agreed – but he is eager to sign another striker during the current transfer window. Newcastle officials have been at pains to distance themselves from repeated stories linking Andy Carroll with a return to the club he left for £35m this time last year. Instead, they are once more looking to the French market as they seek to build on an impressive first half of the season. Newcastle held extensive talks with Erding during the summer but the deal fell through then because of financial differences. Now the 24-year-old Turkish international is concerned over his future at PSG because of the impending influx of high-profile players and is ready to leave during the transfer window. That has prompted Newcastle's senior figures to prepare a second attempt to take the forward – who has scored only once in 17 appearances this term – to the North-east. The Paris club, who currently lead Ligue 1, will look to recoup most of the £7m they paid Sochaux just over two years ago and that is within Newcastle's transfer budget.

It's looking more and more like the provincial government could entertain the idea of turning Ontario Place into a giant water-based entertainment complex of sorts Theme Group — the Austrian company behind one of the world's largest indoor spa complexes — has hired the Toronto-based lobbying firm StrategyCorp to consult with city officials about "a proposal in regard to Ontario Place." A post shared by Therme Erding (@thermeerding) on Jun 1 As journalist Matt Elliot points out in the latest edition of his City Hall Watcher newsletter Therme is known for building and operating "giant domed spa complexes" — the kind that are popular overseas The company currently boasts the two largest thermal bath complexes in all of Europe with Therme Bucharest in Romania and Therme Erding just outside of Munich which spans 46 acres and includes a wide variety of themed indoor and outdoor spaces is said to be visted by around 4,000 people every single day A post shared by Therme Erding (@thermeerding) on Apr 13 Therme Group is a big deal with a lot of money flowing through its 14 international locations It's not wild to think that they'd be willing to invest in soliciting a prime spot on the waterfront of Canada's biggest city A post shared by Therme Erding (@thermeerding) on Jan 11 Premier Doug Ford is currently on a quest to "maximize investment" in the former amusement park which is owned by both the provincial government and the City of Toronto The provincial government announced at the end of May that it had launched a "world-wide search for development partners" to transform the 155-acre downtown Toronto landmark Rumours of ferris wheels, malls and gambling parlours have been circulating ever since and nothing — save for condos and casinos — has been ruled out A post shared by Therme Erding (@thermeerding) on Oct 12 It's hard to say what will come of Therme's lobbying efforts but a year-round dome spa that serves alcohol and food wouldn't be the worst thing to happen to Ontario Place It would be nice to have somewhere to party in our bathing suits during the nine months of the year it's too cold outside to function Therme Erding THE BIGGEST spa in Europe has been described as a "true spa paradise" with guests saying they left feeling "deeply relaxed" The spa is less than two hours away from the UK and is near to one of Europe's most popular city break destinations Therme Erding can be found just north of Munich and is visited by 5,000 people each day looking to make use of its many facilities One of the spa's stand out attractions is its waterpark It's Europe's biggest "slide world" and has 28 different slides providing something different for people of all ages the longest tube slide in the world at 365 metres Kamikaze and X-Treme Faser offer similarly thrilling experiences As many as 24 different themed saunas and steam baths, including Siberian saunas and Russian Banjas mean that everyone's persuasion is catered for. A range of different massages can be booked, while private lounges like the family rooms and lakeside chalets offer a secluded place to relax, away from the other visitors. including four different swim-up pool bars seafood and any number of other dishes can be ordered from a vast array of different restaurants The majority of the resort is inside, but during the summer months there are outdoor options to make the most of too Additional attractions such as extra pools a volleyball court and sunbathing facilities are opened in the thermal garden Meanwhile, the huge glass domes that the rest of the park is kept under can be opened to allow the warm weather from outside into the park The water is kept warm throughout the year however with the wave pool kept at a consistently balmy 34C Visitors can enjoy the calming motion of smaller ripples in the water or try their hand at surfing on much larger two-metre high waves There are even special events held at Therme Erding including festivals featuring poolside DJs Also coming up this year is the German waterslide racing championship for which fans can take part and compete against others to get the fastest time down the park's slides The spa has a total score of 4/5 on TripAdvisor with the vast majority of people giving it the full five stars One wrote: "Was their last week and I'm already dreaming of going back Another simply described it as a "true sauna paradise." A third added: "It really cannot get any more deeply relaxing and therapeutic than this." Prices for a visit to the spa start from £20.60 for a two hour visit and go up to £42 for the whole day Flights are available from the UK from around £68 return Meanwhile, developers hope this new £250m water attraction will be open in Manchester by 2025 And this water attraction will be the first of its kind in the UK when it opens in Kent Our journalists strive for accuracy but on occasion we make mistakes.

Anfangs wollte sie damit nur ihrem Nachbarn den Rücken stärken, der irgendwann allein mit einem Pappschild vor dem Erdinger Rathaus stand, um Habecks aus Berlin dräuende Wärmepumpe zu kritisieren Nach der denkwürdigen Demonstration von Erding steht Hubert Aiwanger aus Sicht der Freien Wähler als Sieger im Duell mit Ministerpräsident Markus Söder da In dessen Umfeld sieht man das ganz anders "Wir sind keine Leugner des Klimawandels oder Gegner von sinnvollen Klimaschutz-Maßnahmen wir sind die liberal-konservative Mitte der Gesellschaft" sagte sie dazu in einem Interview mit dem Münchner Merkur Doch da war es gewissermaßen schon zu spät Nun werden tausende Demonstranten erwartet aus allen möglichen politischen Lagern und Himmelsrichtungen und dass Ministerpräsident Markus Söder (CSU) und Wirtschaftsminister Hubert Aiwanger (Freie Wähler) als Redner auftreten Zuerst aber war die AfD aufgesprungen auf den Zug mit einer eigenen Demo, quasi hinaus zur von großstädtischer Praxisferne genervten Landbevölkerung. Dann trat der - schon in seinem Namen großstädtische - Verein "München ist bunt" auf den Plan. Er rief zur Gegendemo unter dem Hashtag #Erding auf. Und als Slogan wählte er sich dafür: "Gemeinsam gegen Fake News und rechten Kulturkampf gegen Klimaschutzmaßnahmen!" dass dabei Städter gegen die Landbevölkerung antreten oder eine unliebsame Maßnahme zum Klimaschutz gegen mögliche andere ausgespielt wird Dass überhaupt jemand von "Kulturkampf" spricht an dieser Stelle steht für die zunehmende Polarisierung auch im Leben des Freistaats die Gräben zwischen dessen Kulturschaffenden das so lange darauf ausschließlich abonniert war als linke Speerspitze gegen die ewig herrschende CSU zu poltern In anspruchsvollen Berufsfeldern im Stellenmarkt der SZ. .css-5x0u19{-webkit-text-decoration:none;text-decoration:none;}Gutscheine.css-pcxqtt{border:0;clip:rect(0 0 0 0);height:1px;margin:-1px;overflow:hidden;padding:0;position:absolute;white-space:nowrap;width:1px;}: Drei Brüder verunglückten mit einem Porsche bei einer Probefahrt Ein Mann starb.","url":"https://www.merkur.de/lokales/erding/porsche-a92-unfall-cayenne-erding-autobahn-brueder-probefahrt-bayern-drama-tot-13765781.html"};c&&a.navigator.canShare(d)&&(c.style.display="",c.addEventListener("click",b=>{b.preventDefault(),a.setTimeout(function(){a.navigator.share(d)},0)}))}})(window,document); Auf der A92 kam es am Samstag zu einem tragischen Unfall Langenpreising - Ein entsetzlicher Raserunfall hat sich am Samstagmittag auf der A 92 kurz hinter der Anschlussstelle Moosburg Süd ereignete Dabei erlitten drei Brüder im Alter zwischen 40 und 44 Jahren schwerste Verletzungen waren mit einem 440 PS starken Porsche Cayenne auf der A 92 in Richtung Landshut unterwegs Den knapp 80.000 Euro teuren und fast neuen Boliden hatten sie sich im Landkreis Landshut ausgeliehen nach Angaben der Autobahnpolizei Freising unternahmen sie eine Probefahrt Das Unglück nahm auf Höhe der Anschlussstelle Moosburg-Süd seinen Lauf als gegen 12 Uhr ein mit zwei Arbeitern besetzter Monteurslieferwagen aus Eitting auf die linke Spur wechselte schoss der Porsche heran – „mit wohl sehr hohem Tempo“ Zunächst prallte er gegen die Mittelleitplanke aus Beton Danach wurde das SUV ausgehoben und raste unter das linke Heck des Sattelschleppers einer österreichischen Spedition ebenso die beiden Insassen des Lieferwagens Danach schleuderte der Porsche an dem Sattelschlepper vorbei prallte gegen die rechte Leitplanke und blieb vor der Zugmaschine liegen Die rechte Seite des Boliden wurde regelrecht herausgerissen Ein ADAC-Rettungshubschrauber flog ihn ins Klinikum München-Harlaching Die anderen beiden kamen in die Kliniken Freising und Landshut Im Einsatz waren mehrere Rettungswagen und Notärzte sowie die Feuerwehren Moosburg die Autobahnmeisterei leitete den Verkehr um Dennoch bildete sich ein mehrere Kilometer langer Stau Die Staatsanwaltschaft Landshut ordnete ein unfallanalytisches Gutachten an Den Schaden beziffert die Polizei mit mindestens 100 000 Euro Auf der A73 nahe dem Großraum Nürnberg staute sich der Verkehr nach einem Unfall Ein Porsche-Fahrer nutzte die Rettungsgasse um voranzukommen - und lieferte eine dreiste Erklärung Dieser Inhalt"+t(a)+"kann aufgrund Ihrer Datenschutz-Einstellungen nicht geladen werden
