About
Parc du Petit Prince, located in Ungersheim, Alsace, is a family‑friendly amusement park that brings the beloved tale of Antoine de Saint‑Exupéry’s “The Little Prince” to life. Opened on July 1 2014, the park boasts 36 attractions, including 8 thrill rides, a 7‑minute‑long star‑themed 4D film, and a beautiful petting zoo. Designed as the world’s first aerial park, it offers soaring balloon rides, a high‑altitude kitchen bar, and a roller‑coaster that runs inside a volcanic‑themed tunnel. With a gentle focus on imagination and adventure, the park provides an immersive experience for visitors of all ages. The site’s flagship feature is the King’s Balloon, which climbs to 150 m and offers panoramic views of the Vosges, Black Forest, and Alps. The Thunderstone roller‑coaster, inspired by the meteorite of the same name, plunges visitors into a thrilling 10‑meter drop. Meanwhile, the Snake roller‑coaster twists through an animatronic desert environment. Together these attractions make Parc du Petit Prince a unique blend of childhood wonder and adrenaline‑fueling fun. In addition to rides, the park hosts interactive shows, educational workshops, and a petting area that showcases local farm animals. The on‑site hotel, Les Loges, provides accommodation options, while the restaurant La Taverne offers a themed dining experience. Whether you’re a thrill‑seeker, a family looking for a day of fun, or a fan of the Little Prince’s timeless story, Parc du Petit Prince offers a memorable outing that celebrates imagination and adventure.
