The Tolk Show is a family amusement park in Tolk near the city of Schleswig . It is mainly aimed at families with children up to about eleven years of age. The Tolk show originated in the 1960s from an excursion destination designed as a fairy tale forest and is therefore still often locally called “fairy tale park” today. The area of ​​the park is 30 hectares.

Attractions

  • 700 meter long summer toboggan run that leads down the Seeberg. Initially both entry and exit were at the foot of the Seeberg, today the entry point is at the summit of the same.
  • Tolk-Schau-Express: Park railway through the entire park with the exception of the Seeberg.
  • Feldbahn: Park railway through part of the game reserve. The field railway is on the Seeberg. Until the beginning of the 2010s, the Tolk-Schau-Express' trains still ran on the section of track used by the Feldbahn today. After the train operation on the Seeberg ceased, the game reserve was expanded to include this area, and today passengers on the light railroad have the opportunity to observe the animals up close and usually also to feed them.
  • Wegebahn: The Wegebahn runs, as the name suggests, on the normal visitor routes. Since the Tolk-Schau-Express' train service on the Seeberg was discontinued, it has served as a replacement, with which it is still possible for visitors to reach the summit of the Seeberg "motorized".
