Legoland Germany Tips: What to Know Before Visiting Legoland Günzburg With Kids

This post may contain affiliate links. If you click on one and make a purchase, I might earn a small commission (at zero extra cost to you), which helps me keep this blog running.

For our son’s 13th birthday, we spent one day at LEGOLAND Deutschland Resort in Günzburg, Bavaria. Many people know it as Legoland Germany or Legoland Günzburg / Legoland Gunzburg, and if you are planning a family trip in southern Germany, it can be a very good day trip from Munich, Stuttgart, or Ulm.

We visited from Munich by car, dealt with heavy rain in the morning, tried many of the rides our son cared about most, ate inside the park, used the park map and app, and still left with one mistake that upset him on his birthday: we left Pick a Brick shopping too late.

So this is my honest Legoland Germany guide, with the things I would check before going, the rides that worked well for an older child, the practical costs, what happens if it rains, and the mistake I really wish we had avoided.

Last updated: June 2026 — ticket, opening hour, parking, train, birthday entry, Fastrack, and 2026 park update details checked.

Birthday tip before we even start: LEGOLAND Germany offers free park entry on the actual birthday for children turning 2 to 11, with official proof of age. Our son was turning 13, so this did not apply to us, but if you are planning a Legoland birthday trip for a younger child, check this before buying tickets.

We had a wonderful time, but one simple planning mistake changed the end of the day. I will explain it below because it is exactly the kind of thing you may not think about when you are trying to fit rides, lunch, photos, shopping, and tired kids into one Legoland day.

Table of Contents

Plan Your Visit at a Glance

  • Location: Günzburg, Bavaria, Germany
  • Best base: Munich, Stuttgart, Ulm, or Günzburg
  • How to get there: around 1h10 from Munich by car in our experience, depending on traffic and where you start
  • Good for: families with younger kids, LEGO fans, and older kids who still enjoy theme parks and rides
  • Official target age: mainly children aged 2–12, but our son visited for his 13th birthday and still enjoyed many attractions
  • Time needed: one full day for the highlights, two days if you want rides, shows, Miniland, shopping, and breaks without rushing
  • 2026 season: March 28 to November 8, with selected closure days, so always check the official LEGOLAND opening calendar before booking hotels or tickets
  • Opening hours: usually from 10 AM, with closing time depending on date and season
  • Tickets: online tickets are usually cheaper than buying on site
  • Parking: paid separately if you come by car
  • Very useful to know: rides close one hour before the park closes, and shops or restaurants may have their own hours
  • Best tip from our visit: do not leave Pick a Brick, special shops, or must-do rides for the final hour

What’s New at Legoland Germany in 2026?

If you read older Legoland Germany guides before planning your trip, check the current park updates too. For 2026, LEGOLAND Deutschland has a new Tree of Creativity in front of the LEGO Shop, made with 259,923 LEGO bricks. The main LEGO Shop has also been modernised and expanded, with the largest LEGO selection in Germany.

For LEGO fans, this makes the shopping part of the visit even more tempting. And yes, after our Pick a Brick mistake, I would now plan shopping earlier in the day, not as an afterthought.

There is also a Harry Potter update worth knowing about, but I would be careful with it when planning. LEGOLAND Deutschland has announced that the world’s first LEGO Harry Potter land and first Harry Potter themed accommodation are in development. I would not book a trip only around that until the official opening date and full details are published, but Harry Potter fans should check the official LEGOLAND Harry Potter page before choosing their dates.

How to get to LEGOLAND Deutschland

If you’re visiting Munich with kids, Legoland Günzburg makes a very good day trip from the city. We included it as part of our bigger Munich itinerary, and it made sense for us because we had a car and wanted a special day for Eric’s birthday.

Legoland Günzburg is in Bavaria and is accessible by car, train, and nearby airports. You do not have to drive, although driving was the easiest option for us.

By Car: We found driving the most convenient option because we were on vacation in Munich and got there by car from Romania.

The parking is well signposted and has many parking spaces. The address for your GPS is Legoland-Allee 1, 89312 Günzburg, Germany. Honestly, we used Google Maps and entered Legoland Günzburg, and we had a route planned from our hotel to the park.

Parking is paid separately, and prices can change, so check the official parking page before your visit. When I checked the 2026 details, the standard parking fee was listed at €12. I still recommend buying parking online when possible, because it saves time at the ticket machines or cash desks when you leave.

If you are coming with an electric car, there is also a small EV charging note worth knowing. LEGOLAND lists a charging station in the car park with two Type 2 charging points, up to 22 kW, but it cannot be reserved and availability is not guaranteed. So I would not build the whole driving plan around charging there.

From Munich, it was about a 1-hour 10-minute drive for us. You can also get here in a similar amount of time from Stuttgart, depending on traffic and your starting point. If you are still deciding how to organize transport, I have a separate guide to renting a car in Munich that may help if Legoland is part of a bigger Bavaria trip.

Tip: If you’re traveling from Stuttgart or Ulm, you can combine your visit with a stop at Ulm Minster, home to the tallest church spire in the world. It’s only about 30 minutes from Legoland and adds a touch of history to your trip. Unfortunately, we found out about this after visiting Legoland, so we missed it 🙁

By Train: The Günzburg train station is well connected if you prefer public transport, and there is a regular bus between Günzburg railway station and LEGOLAND.

One useful train booking detail: when buying your train ticket, do not enter only “Günzburg” as your final destination. LEGOLAND’s official advice is to use “LEGOLAND Park” or “LEGOLAND Feriendorf” as the destination if that option is available, because only then is the bus transfer included in the train ticket price. You can check the current train and shuttle information on the official getting here page.

By Air: For international visitors, Munich Airport and Stuttgart Airport are the nearest major airports. Both are around 90 minutes by car from the park, depending on traffic.

Accommodation options near Legoland Günzburg

You can stay at the LEGOLAND Holiday Village for the full immersive experience. The village offers different themed accommodation options, including pirate, castle, adventure, NINJAGO, and other LEGO-inspired stays.

Frankly, there are good places to stay near Legoland Günzburg, whether you choose the official LEGOLAND Holiday Village or nearby hotels in Günzburg and Ulm. Families with younger children often prefer staying on site because it keeps the day easier and continues the LEGO feeling after the park closes.

If you are visiting with children of very different ages, also check PEPPA PIG Park Günzburg. It is connected to the resort offers, and there are packages that include both LEGOLAND Germany and PEPPA PIG Park over two consecutive days. For our 13-year-old, LEGOLAND was the main attraction, but families with a toddler and an older child may find the two-park option useful.

Tip: Book your accommodation well in advance, especially during peak season. Staying on site keeps you close to the park and can make a two-day visit much easier.

I will add that we did not stay here. We chose a hotel in Munich as a base, because, as mentioned, our trip to Legoland Germany was part of a bigger vacation focused on Munich. If you are doing the same, I also recommend reading my practical things to know before visiting Munich guide, especially for transport, Sunday closures, cash, and planning around the weather.

What to do at Legoland Günzburg

Let’s start with a park overview.

Legoland Günzburg Areas

Legoland Günzburg is divided into several themed areas, each offering different attractions:

  • Miniland
  • LEGO City
  • Knights’ Kingdom
  • Pharaohs’ Land
  • Adventure Land
  • LEGO NINJAGO World
  • LEGO X-TREME
  • LEGO MYTHICA
  • Pirate Land
  • Imagination
  • LEGO Factory

Best rides at Legoland Germany for older kids and families

Because our son was turning 13, I paid more attention to rides that still feel fun for older kids, not only the gentle attractions for small children.

For older kids who like stronger rides, the ones I would look at first are MAXIMUS – The Guardian’s Flight, Flying NINJAGO, Lloyd’s Spinjitzu Spinner, Jungle X-pedition, The Great LEGO Race, and the Dragon rides in Knights’ Kingdom.

For interactive rides, Tempel X-pedition was one of the best for us. We did it several times, and our scores improved each time, which made it more fun than just riding once and moving on.

For calmer moments, Miniland, the Observation Tower, Harbour Cruise, and LEGOLAND ATLANTIS by SEA LIFE are good choices. Miniland alone deserves more time than we gave it, especially if you like models, cities, trains, small details, and photos.

One practical warning: check height limits before promising a ride to a child. Many bigger rides have minimum height and age rules, and the rules are not the same for riding with an adult and riding alone.

What we did at Legoland Günzburg

During our Legoland Günzburg visit, we experienced everything from peaceful boat rides to splashy adventures and learned a few lessons along the way.

Unfortunately, when we visited, it rained heavily in the morning. We arrived at 11 AM, even though the park opened earlier, and we could only start enjoying the rides at about 11.45.

What happens if it rains at Legoland Germany?

From our experience, rain does not automatically ruin the day, but it can change your order of rides. If the rain is heavy, outdoor rides may be delayed or less pleasant, and you will need a backup plan.

The best rainy options to check are LEGOLAND ATLANTIS by SEA LIFE, LEGO Studios, LEGO Factory, and Tempel X-pedition. ATLANTIS is indoors and has sharks, rays, tropical fish, and a glass tunnel, so it is a useful place to know about before you arrive. We did not use it as our first rain stop, and looking back, I wish I had kept it higher on my list.

Also, if you plan to do splash rides after rain, think about shoes. Jungle X-pedition was fun, but my sandals and Eric’s sneakers were wet after the ride.

If your whole Munich trip includes uncertain weather, I also have a full guide to what to do in Munich when it rains, because Bavaria weather can change plans fast when you already have tickets or a family day scheduled.

After the rain stopped, we jumped into literally the first attraction in sight – the LEGO Harbour Cruise. You are in small boats, you have paddles, and there is a short course. Note: these are empty because the rain had just stopped and people were starting to come here. It is not this empty when the weather is ok. We were the first in the boats – yey:)

After that, we went further.

Eric wanted to get his driver’s license from the Driving School. There are two versions: Junior Driving School for younger children and Driving School for children aged 7 to 13. As it was his birthday, we did not say no. It cost extra when we visited, so add this to your budget if your child wants the printed license.

As a note: the lessons are only in German, but you get a flyer with the most important signs and explanations in English. And the instructor knows in advance who speaks German and who doesn’t.

Also, while you will see online many kids having fun on the course in LEGO cars, I have to add that the cars are very-very slow. I know it is for the kids’ safety, but it’s best to know and not expect speed.

Flying NINJAGO ride at Legoland Günzburg Germany

We had some time before the driving course, and he chose Flying NINJAGO. He was the only one of us who tried it, and he liked it a lot.

One note: it is a short ride, so if your child wants to try the 360-degree movement, they should do it soon after takeoff. Also check the height and age rules before promising this one, because Flying NINJAGO is not for very small children.

We then visited the LEGO Factory / Pick a Brick area near Flying NINJAGO. For brick lovers, this is dangerous in the best and most expensive way. There are so many LEGO pieces that it is very easy to say, “We’ll come back later,” especially if you are trying to get to the rides first.

Do not make our mistake: do not leave Pick a Brick for the final hour.

We postponed buying bricks because I thought we could return before closing time. The park was open until 6 PM, so in my mind, the shop would be open until then too. We arrived at 5.07 PM and could not get in because the store was already closed.

There was a schedule on the door, saying 10:00–17:00, but we had missed it earlier.

And yes, Eric did not get to buy the LEGO bricks he wanted on his birthday. He cried, and we could not return another day. So if your child really wants Pick a Brick, buy early or at least check the shop closing time before leaving that area.

For 2026, the LEGO shopping part is even bigger because the main LEGO Shop has been modernised and expanded. That makes my advice even stronger: if shopping is part of the day, do not leave it for the final hour.

There was another moment in this same area that I still remember.

After Flying NINJAGO and around the LEGO Factory area, we found a small girl who was lost. She was German and did not speak English. I know a bit of German, but not enough for a full conversation with a frightened child, so I asked what I could, stayed with her where she was, and did not move her to another part of the park.

My husband and son went to look for help. They could not immediately find a guard, so they went inside the LEGO Factory, where there were several employees. One of them came out, talked to the girl, and handled the situation from there.

I am adding this as one of the top amusement park tips because Legoland is colorful, busy, and full of things children want to look at. Even a careful family can have a moment when someone stops, turns, or walks a few steps in the wrong direction. Before you start the rides, choose a clear meeting point, make sure your child knows your phone number if they are old enough, and tell them to go to a ride employee, shop employee, or official staff member if they get separated. 

Miniland Neuschwanstein Castle at Legoland Günzburg Germany

Then he went to the driving school, and during that time, I admired Miniland and took photos and videos, of course.

Miniland UAE area at Legoland Günzburg Germany

There is a huge exhibit and I cannot even begin to show you all the wonders that you will see while going through this section of Legoland Germany. Miniland is impressive and wonderful.

From areas in Germany, Berlin for instance, to countries and symbols from all over the world, Venice, UAE, The Netherlands, and more, everything is amazing.

Plus! There are boats floating on the river, trains, sounds, and more used to animate this entire park.

And the details are truly impressive. Look at this Allianz Arena from Munich.

I have to admit that I did not have enough time to admire Miniland thoroughly 🙁

Knights’ Kingdom entrance at Legoland Günzburg Germany

After the Driving School, my husband and son went on a roller coaster in the Knights’ Kingdom section.

From there we went to have lunch. My boys wanted pizza, so we went to Pizza Mania.

After that it started to rain again, but only a bit, not heavy, so they kept the rides open.

Eric and I went to Jungle X-pedition in Adventure Land. I saw this ride on YouTube and really wanted to try it, even though I am not such a big fan of roller coasters.

Final splash section of Jungle X-pedition at Legoland Günzburg Germany

It was not disappointing. It was thrilling. And yes, it is a ride that takes you backward for part of the route.

And also yes, you will get water drops on you, because it is splashy, including at the end. I had water on my sandals, and Eric had water on his sneakers, all through the ride.

Eric loved it so much that later he got back and did the ride again. This time he was in the front row. When we went together, we were in the back row.

From here we went to the LEGO MYTHICA area, where Eric went on MAXIMUS – The Guardian’s Flight.

MAXIMUS The Guardian’s Flight in LEGO MYTHICA at Legoland Günzburg Germany

It is not a very long ride, but it is spectacular. Toward the end, there is a 360-degree turn, and Eric had so much fun. You have probably guessed by now that he is the adventurous one in our family.

Before adding it to your child’s must-do list, check the current height and age rules. MAXIMUS is one of the bigger thrill rides at Legoland Germany, and not every child will be able to ride it.

Pharaohs’ Land was our next stop, and we tried Tempel X-pedition several times. It was a lot of fun for us, and our scores improved with each ride.

From there we went to the Observation Tower. The view was nice, and we did not regret taking it.

Then we got back to LEGO NINJAGO World, with the above-mentioned second stop to Jungle X-pedition for Eric, and tried Lloyd’s Spinjitzu Spinner. I still can’t believe I did that.

Lloyd’s Spinjitzu Spinner at Legoland Günzburg Germany

However, my son thought he could spin a lot more, so he did it one more time.

As I already mentioned, we wanted to buy some bricks after that, but at 5.07 PM it was too late.

So we went to the LEGO Shop at the entrance. My son bought a simple, cheaper set for 10 euros, and that became his gift from Legoland Günzburg on his birthday.

Unfortunately, he did not get to try The Great LEGO Race. This was our second planning lesson of the day: the ride queues close before the park closes. For the regular season, LEGOLAND states that rides close one hour before park closing.

So do not plan your final hour as ride time. Use it for walking toward the exit, quick photos, toilets, snacks, or shopping you already checked is still open.

What and where to eat at Legoland Günzburg

There are plenty of food options at Legoland Günzburg.

Basically, each area has a restaurant. We went to Pizza Mania in the Imagination area.

Can you bring your own food to Legoland Germany?

This is one of those things families usually want to know before booking. Many people bring snacks and water bottles for children, and I would personally still pack at least a few easy snacks, especially if your child gets hungry in queues or between restaurants.

For a full picnic or special dietary needs, check the current official rules before you go. Park policies can change, and I do not like giving people a guarantee when the official wording may be updated later.

I wanted to go to Schnitzel Depot from the Adventure Land area, but we got hungry before that and we weren’t hungry again when getting through that area.

Overall, food at Legoland Germany was tasty, but theme park prices are higher than eating outside the park. When we visited, a simple meal was usually around €10–€15 per person, depending on what you chose. Check current menus if you are trying to keep the day on a strict budget.

This is for all food areas. For instance, here is the menu for the Asia Chicken House in the Little Asia area, next to Flying NINJAGO.

You also have various snacks and sweets along the way. Ice cream, waffles, and more are available.

If you buy Coca-Cola products, there are areas where you can recycle the bottles, which I loved, and places where you get refills for your glasses, which I loved too.

How many days do you need for Legoland Germany?

For many families, one full day is enough for the main highlights, especially if you arrive at opening time, already know your priority rides, and do not visit on a very crowded summer day.

For us, one day was good, but not complete. We did many attractions, but we missed The Great LEGO Race, did not have enough time for Miniland, and lost the chance to buy Pick a Brick pieces because we left shopping too late.

If your children love rides, want to repeat favourites, want time for Miniland, shows, shopping, and maybe PEPPA PIG Park too, two days are better. The official overnight packages often include multi-day ticket options, so compare prices before deciding.

Before deciding between one and two days, check two things: height limits and Fastrack.

Height limits matter because the bigger rides are not all available to every child. Flying NINJAGO, MAXIMUS – The Guardian’s Flight, Jungle X-pedition, The Great LEGO Race, Lloyd’s Spinjitzu Spinner, and other popular attractions all have their own rules.

Fastrack is the current name for the old Express Pass system. We did not need it during our visit because the rain made the park quieter at first and the lines were manageable. But if you visit during school holidays, a sunny weekend, or you only have one day and your child has several must-do rides, check Fastrack before going. It costs extra and does not include park entry, so I would only consider it when the day is likely to be busy.

Keep in mind that, depending on when you are visiting, the park has different closing hours. Also, during the weekend and the summer vacation, there are more visitors. This means longer queues, longer waiting times, and fewer rides experienced.

My family likes these parks. While I am not a fan of roller coasters, for instance, I did try some rides here and loved them. And there are still a few we did not manage to ride because there was no time.

So consider your preferences when booking. Also, if you will spend two days here, perhaps a better option for accommodation is the LEGOLAND Hotel or Holiday Village. It looks nice, it is near the park, and you have more time for the LEGO experience beyond the rides.

In conclusion: most families can see the main highlights in one full day, but two days are better if you want to experience more rides and shows without rushing.

Other tips and tricks for visiting Legoland Günzburg

I presented some tips for visiting Legoland Günzburg above, but I have a few more. I am including below the recommendations I would have wanted in one place before our visit.

Check opening hours and closure days

Check the official opening calendar before booking tickets, trains, flights, or hotels. LEGOLAND Germany is seasonal, and the calendar can include closure days even during the regular season.

Also check shop and restaurant hours inside the park. We left without buying LEGO bricks because I thought the shop would close at the same time as the park. It did not.

Rides close before the park closes

This is one of the most useful things to know before visiting Legoland Germany. During the regular season, ride queues close one hour before the park closes.

So if the park closes at 6 PM, do not arrive at a must-do ride at 5.30 PM expecting to get in line. Build your day around the rides first, then leave the final part for lower-pressure things.

Plan your itinerary before you arrive

Make sure to download the map of Legoland Günzburg and see which rides you would like to try. You can find many of them presented on the official site, in videos by visitors, and in guides like this one.

Before you go, I would group the rides into must-do, nice-to-do, and only-if-nearby. This is easier than trying to decide everything while walking through the park.

Use the app, but know what it can and cannot show

The LEGOLAND Deutschland app is useful for the park map, tickets, show times, ride information, and live queue times.

One detail that can confuse people: live queue times are only visible when you are inside the park and have allowed location access. So if you check the app from your hotel room in Munich, do not be surprised if you cannot see the same information yet.

I installed the app, but I did not use it as much as expected because the lines were not that big during our visit and I had already done a lot of research.

There are maps available inside the park

If you do not use the app, do not worry. Maps are available. There are printed maps you can take with you, and there are also outdoor panels with the map in different areas of the park.

Consider lockers if you bring spare clothes or a bigger bag

If you bring spare socks, rain jackets, snacks, or a change of clothes for water rides, check the locker locations when you enter. LEGOLAND lists a limited number of lockers at the entrance area and near the Holiday Village park entrance by Pharaohs’ Land, with different prices depending on size. 

Choose a meeting point in case someone gets separated

This is one of those things you hope you will not need, but it takes one minute and can help a lot. Choose a visible meeting point when you enter the park, especially if you are visiting with younger children or if your older child sometimes walks ahead for photos, rides, or shops.

For younger children, make sure they know to stay where they are and ask an official employee for help. For older kids, make sure their phone is charged, roaming works if needed, the volume is on, and they know exactly where to meet you. 

It is also worth noticing where First Aid is when you arrive. LEGOLAND lists the First Aid station next to the picnic area, between the Observation Tower and Dragon Hunt. 

Bring some cash for small paid games

There are extra game booths inside the park, the kind where children throw a ball, try a challenge, and hope to win a plush toy. These are not included in the park ticket.

When we visited, they cost extra, usually around €5–€10, and cash was needed. If your child likes this type of thing, decide before entering the park how many extras you are willing to pay for, otherwise the small costs add up fast.

Another extra to know about is Gold Panning in Knights’ Kingdom. It is a paid activity where children pan/dig for “gold” and can exchange what they find for a LEGOLAND gold coin, so if your child notices it, it may become one more small cost to add to the day. We saw this too, but being on the rush, we did not stop for it.

Plan for extra expenses

If you want to have photos from the rides, you will need to pay. You can use the app and save the photos, but you will have to pay. These can be paid by card, but they are extra. When we visited, I think it was around €8 per photo.

Extra costs to know before visiting Legoland Germany

The ticket is not the only cost. Based on our visit, I would budget separately for parking, food, Driving School license, small games, ride photos, souvenirs, Pick a Brick, and any Fastrack upgrade if you decide you need it.

You do not need all of these. But if you are going for a birthday, or if your child is a big LEGO fan, the shop and Pick a Brick budget should be planned before you enter the park.

Choose where you will eat before everyone gets hungry

Each section of the park has a different type of food available. So, if you want a schnitzel, plan your route through Legoland accordingly so that you get to that restaurant at lunch. You can plan everything in advance easily by using the map.

There are several souvenir shops

There are several souvenir shops around the park. I did not check every single one, but we saw shops in areas like Knights’ Kingdom, and of course the main LEGO shopping areas are the ones LEGO fans will probably care about most.

Is Legoland Günzburg worth visiting?

So, is Legoland Germany worth visiting? For us, yes. Even with the rain, the missed Pick a Brick stop, and the ride we did not manage to try, it was still a very good family day and a memorable 13th birthday trip for our son.

I would say it is worth it most for families with children who love LEGO, interactive rides, themed areas, Miniland, and lighter thrill rides. It is not only for very small children, but if you are visiting with older kids or teens, check the ride list first to make sure there is enough for them to get excited about.

Even if you’re not a huge fan of amusement parks, Legoland Günzburg offers more than just rides. Miniland is impressive, the themed areas are fun to walk through, and there are enough smaller experiences to make the day feel varied.

If you’re planning a visit to Legoland Germany, consider spending two days if you want to explore every themed area, enjoy the rides maybe even twice, watch shows, shop properly, and take more time for Miniland.

Kids will love LEGOLAND Deutschland Resort, and adults can enjoy it too, especially if you go in with a realistic plan.

If Legoland is part of a longer Munich family trip, you can also plan indoor or family-friendly stops such as the Deutsches Museum, BMW Welt and BMW Museum, Sea Life Munich, or even Motorworld München if your family likes cars.

Frequently Asked Questions about Legoland Günzburg

Q: When is the best time to visit Legoland Germany?
A: Spring and early fall are good choices if you want milder weather and potentially smaller crowds than peak summer. For 2026, the regular season runs from March 28 to November 8, but there are closure days on the official calendar, so check your exact date before booking. Summer can be fun too, especially for water rides, but expect more people during holidays and weekends.

Q: How much time do you need for Legoland Günzburg?
A: One full day is enough for many families to see the main highlights, but two days are better if you want more rides, shows, Miniland, shopping, and a slower pace. We spent one day there and enjoyed it, but we also missed a few things.

Q: Is Legoland Günzburg good for teenagers?
A: It can be, depending on the teenager. Our son visited for his 13th birthday and enjoyed rides like Flying NINJAGO, Jungle X-pedition, MAXIMUS – The Guardian’s Flight, Tempel X-pedition, and Lloyd’s Spinjitzu Spinner. I would check the ride list before booking if your child is older and mainly wants big thrill rides.

Q: What should I not miss at Legoland Germany?
A: Don’t miss Miniland, Jungle X-pedition, Tempel X-pedition, LEGO MYTHICA, and at least one NINJAGO ride if your child likes more active attractions. And if your child wants LEGO bricks, buy them early. Do not leave Pick a Brick for the end of the day.

Q: Do children need a ticket for Legoland Germany?
A: Yes, children aged 2 and over need an admission ticket or annual pass. Children under 2 enter free. Birthday children turning 2 to 11 can get free entry on their actual birthday with official proof of age.

Q: Is Legoland Germany good in the rain?
A: It can still be worth visiting in the rain, but you need a flexible plan. Keep indoor attractions such as LEGOLAND ATLANTIS by SEA LIFE, LEGO Studios, LEGO Factory, and Tempel X-pedition in mind. Also bring shoes and clothes that can handle wet rides, because water attractions can leave you damp even after the rain stops.

Q: Can you visit Legoland Germany by train?
A: Yes. You can take the train to Günzburg and then use the bus connection to LEGOLAND. When booking the train, check whether you can set the destination as LEGOLAND Park or LEGOLAND Feriendorf, because LEGOLAND says the bus transfer is included only in that case.

Q: Is Fastrack worth it at Legoland Germany?
A: We did not need Fastrack during our visit because the lines were manageable, but I would check it if you are visiting during school holidays, a sunny weekend, or you only have one day and several must-do rides. Fastrack costs extra, does not include park entry, and is valid only for selected attractions.

Q: Is PEPPA PIG Park near Legoland Germany?
A: Yes. PEPPA PIG Park Günzburg is connected to the LEGOLAND resort offers and can make sense for families with toddlers or preschool children. For our 13-year-old, Legoland Germany was the main reason to visit, but mixed-age families may want to compare the two-park options.
