Everything to Know About Nigloland: An Adventure for Everyone
Founded in 1987 by brothers Patrice and Philippe Gélis—descendants of a long line of passionate fairground workers—Nigloland is much more than a simple amusement park. It is a family legacy that has preserved its authentic soul while rising to the ranks of the greatest European parks. Nestled in a 40-hectare preserved green setting, the park takes its name from the word "Niglo," which means hedgehog in the Romani language, a small emblem found throughout the paths.
The Nigloland experience is based on total immersion in four themed lands with meticulous decor, each offering a unique atmosphere:
1. The Marvelous Village: A Paradise for Kids and Dreamers
This is the historical heart of the park, where magic happens for the youngest visitors. Between shimmering colors and catchy music, this world offers gentle and poetic attractions.
- The Forest Hedgehogs: A peaceful ride on mechanical hedgehogs to discover local wildlife.
- The Duck Carousel: A timeless classic for those first bursts of laughter.
- The Enchanted River: A bucolic boat ride along the water, ideal for a tender family break.
- New Features and Shows: The Marvelous Village often hosts puppet shows and street entertainment where Niglo and Niglotte, the mascots, come to meet children.
2. The Canadian Village: Thrills in the Wild
Here, wood and stone dominate. This world transports visitors to the wild landscapes of the Great North, between rushing rivers and dense forests.
