Europa-Park has announced that the Austria themed area will be expanding for the 2022 season, taking over much of the previous Adventure Land area.

During a trip on the lake, guests can marvel at the beauties of Austria and magnificent garden art. The conversion of the former 'Jungle Rafts' and the new theme of 'Josefina's Imperial Magic Journey' will take place in several sections by 2023.

From the start of the 2022 season, the romantic boat trip will be open to the whole family and numerous changes can be discovered.

In 'Josefina's Imperial Magic Journey', guests can enjoy a themed trip across an idyllic lake and through a magnificent palace garden. Accompanied by beautiful waltz music composed by T-Rex Classics, the route will lead past impressive water features and a secret garden as well as through a romantic rose arch.

Guests pass through different stages of Empress Josefina's life: from the wild, nature-loving childhood to her life as Empress. A new musical highlight will be the fountain show 'Viennese Water Waltz', where guests can experience an exciting interplay of water, light and music.

The 'Donau Dampfer' (Danube Steamer) attraction, previously known as the 'African Queen', will also have a new look for the 2022 season.
