Where to Go with Kids: The Five Best Amusement Parks in Ukraine

If your child dreams of dinosaurs, space travel, or roller coasters as tall as apartment buildings, you don’t need to go abroad to find them. From VR arenas in Lviv to interactive adventures in Kyiv and carousels in Ivano-Frankivsk, we’ve prepared a list of five parks that entertain all ages: from toddlers accompanied by parents to teenagers.

Dragon Park

Imagine a place where kids from one year old to teenagers can stay busy for hours — and without gadgets. Dragon Park on Stryiska Street has gathered under one roof VR attractions, a trampoline arena, go-karts, and even a Candy Shop with ice cream and uniquely shaped cotton candy.

For toddlers (from age one), there’s a castle maze, a merry-go-round, and a dry ball pit. Older kids can explore a five-story labyrinth with tubing and a 650 m² ninja park, slides with 16- and 21-meter tubes, electric go-karts racing around a glowing dragon, and VR rides in the form of motorcycles, airplanes, or spacecraft.

The trampoline zone is divided into kids’ and adults’ areas, featuring an interactive screen and a climbing wall shaped like a dragon’s ribcage. There are also areas for air hockey, shooting games, arcade machines, and even nets with a soft 9-meter-long dragon.

When energy runs out, you can relax in a 30-seat cinema, order pizza or sushi at a restaurant with an open kitchen, or check out the Candy Shop — it offers 12 types of ice cream, original cotton candy, and candy by weight. For celebrations, the park has 14 banquet rooms.

Address: Lviv, Stryiska St. 202
Children’s age: From 1 year

Yasnogray

Yasnogray is a place where children can have fun all day while parents relax in nature. The park is situated within a large eco-park that features a zoo and an ostrich farm, transforming a regular stroll into an exciting adventure.

There’s a trampoline complex: from the large “Wombat” trampoline and net micro-trampolines (included in the standard ticket) to the themed “Paw Patrol” trampoline in the extended package. Kids can also enjoy various types of swings, modern climbing structures, and slides from the Ukrainian brand “InterAtletika,” as well as a “mine-maze” and kids’ electric cars.

Adventure lovers can try the 150-meter extreme zipline. This is a separate service with an extra fee, but it's absolutely worth it for the experience.

For celebrations, there are gazebos among the trees, and a team of animators organizes quests, themed programs, and workshops.

Address: Kyiv region, Yasnohorodka village, Pidlisna St. 32
Children’s age: From 3 years

Ururu

Dinosaurs, net trails among trees, roller coasters, and mini-excavators — all this can be found at Ururu, the largest open-air amusement park in Western Ukraine. It spans 9 hectares in the village of Stare Selo near Lviv.

The park's newest attraction is the Disk’O Coaster 40 — a massive 40-seat disk that spins 360° and rides along a wavy track. Other attractions include a drop tower, “Babylon” slide complexes up to 13 meters high, and two all-season tubing tracks — one for families and one extreme. Speed lovers can ride a 25-meter-long zipline with unlimited use.

At the park’s center is a net park suspended 2–7 meters high: dozens of net trampolines where kids can jump and run among the trees. There are also the “Wooden Jungle” climbing zone, a large trampoline, and swings — from classic to giant-sized.

Kids can "become adults" here: at a mini driving school, they learn to drive with road markings and traffic lights; in the Big Foot zone, they ride child-sized monster trucks; and on mini-excavators, they control the digging bucket themselves. There are also Crazi-Bugz six-wheeled ATVs that even the youngest can master.

A separate zone features a dinosaur park with 22 interactive figures. These dinosaurs roar, move, respond to motion, and look very realistic. Nearby is a “rabbit area” for little kids and an enclosure with noble deer that can be petted through the fence.

In warmer months, a water area opens with a fountain amphitheater, maze, and raft crossing. There are also themed “mines” and a “gold mine” for young treasure hunters.

After all the activities, families can relax at an 800 m² pizzeria serving ten types of wood-fired pizza, or shop in a souvenir store with over 300 items. For celebrations, the park offers more than ten formats — from dinosaur-themed birthday parties to quests and workshops.

Address: Lviv region, Stare Selo village, Lisova St. 14
Children’s age: From 3 years (some areas available from 1–2 years with parents)

WOW Park

WOW Park isn’t just a kids’ entertainment center — it’s a whole space for learning through play. Covering more than 1,400 m², it combines activities to develop imagination, attention, agility, and teamwork.

The highlight is the 360° interactive room. A system of sensors and cameras responds to every movement: kids can create characters, interact with them, and influence the storyline. The installations change: from “Eco-Hero,” who plants trees instead of littering, to “Fruit Catcher,” where you collect fruit and fill a juice glass, or “RoboMission,” where kids program a robot via touchscreen. There’s also “Tsvit-Hora” with a colorful slide and an “EcoPrinter” that brings gray creatures to life with color.

Beyond the interactive zone, the park has a large play area: a ship with rocks and slides, a sea of building blocks for toddlers, space for workshops, discos, and parties. There’s also a lounge area for rest.

Address: Kyiv, Akademika Zabolotnoho St. 37 (ArtMall shopping center, 2nd floor)
Children’s age: From 3 years

Lys Mykyta is a legendary amusement park that has been bringing joy to residents and visitors of Ivano-Frankivsk for over 30 years. It offers everything from classic children’s carousels to extreme attractions for teens and adults. The green surroundings add coziness, turning even a simple walk into a little celebration.

The park features over 20 attractions to suit all tastes. Young children will enjoy “Swans,” “Sunshine,” or the kids’ train, while older visitors can try the Free Fall Tower, a wild swing, and the “Super-Puper” ride.

After recent renovations, the park now has modern infrastructure and comfortable rest areas, making it a popular spot for family outings.
