Pools and waterslides

  1. What pools and slides are there in Serena? Get to know the activities of the water park.

In Crazy Race, the minimum height is 120 cm and the maximum weight for 1 person is 120 kg. There are no other weight, height or age restrictions in Serena’s pools and slides. For small children, always take into account the depth of the pools. In slides, where tubes are used, the person must have the ability to stay on the tube independently. If a small child cannot independently stay on the tube, the child is too small for the activity in question. However, Serena also has plenty of slides and pools suitable for small children!
  3. How are the pools and slides open? The slides and the water park’s outdoor pools close 30 minutes before the park closes. The indoor pools close 15 minutes before the park closes. All maintenance work is usually done outside of opening hours, but Serena reserves the right to maintain slides and pools also during opening hours without prior notice if necessary. If one of our main activities is out of service for a longer period of time, it is announced in the section slides & activities.
  4. What kind of swimwear is allowed? Serena must have a swimsuit intended for swimming. Swimming shorts can be worn, and also, for example, for health reasons, a more covering outfit made of swimsuit fabric can be worn. It is forbidden to wear other than swimming suits in the pools. Swimwear must not have zippers, rivets or anything that could scratch the water slides. Serena is not responsible for broken swimwear.
  5. Does my child need a swim diaper? All children of diaper age must wear a diaper in the pools. Swim diapers can be purchased at Serena’s store.

  8. Are the outdoor pools open during rain and storms? The outdoor pools and slides are open during the summer season whenever the park is open, rain or shine. When a thunderstorm approaches, the outdoor pools may have to be temporarily closed, but most of the time they can be opened quickly within the same day. Due to exceptionally strong winds, individual slides in the outdoor water park may have to be held closed, but this is very, very rare.
  9. Can swimming toys be taken to swimming pools or slides? Swimming toys can be taken into the pools, but not into the slides or into the sauna facilities. Very large toys or mattresses are not allowed.

Physical Disabilities

  1. Assistants
    • The assistant of a paying client with a disability who needs individual support gets free entry to the park area and can go to the pools and activities with the assisted person free of charge. A disabled person must prove their need for an assistant with the EU Disability Card (with an A marking indicating the need for assistance).
      • Please take into account that in our ticket sales we do not make assessments of the customer’s state of health or the need for an assistant, but the need for an assistant must be proved as mentioned above. The customer must therefore have a disability card with them.
      • The EU Disability Card without an A marking does not entitle the assistant to free entry.
      • Also, a copy/photo of the disability card, an application letter, a medical diagnosis or any other similar statement does not entitle the assistant to free entry.
    • The prerequisite for an assistant permit is that the person being assisted has paid for the entrance ticket (wristband) or that they have another ticket product (e.g. season pass). As a general rule, an assistant permit can only be granted to one assistant of the assisted person.
    • As a general rule, the assistant must be of legal age. A minor can also act as an assistant on a case-by-case basis. The assistant must actually be able to act as an assistant.
    • A visually impaired person’s assistance dog can be brought to the water park. Otherwise, bringing animals to the water park is not allowed.
  2. The Serena area has barrier-free entry and passage from one space to another. Please note, however, that the access to the pools and slides is via the stairs, so there is no wheelchair access.
  3. Our premises have an accessible toilet. Disabled toilets can be found next to the restaurant Granina and next to the saunas.
  4. How do the dressing rooms work? A shower chair is available in the changing rooms. A shower chair with wheels is also available upon request.
