Sarkanniemi is an amusement park located in downtown Tampere, Finland. This is a small park but it has a great atmosphere next to the water and it is filled with roller coasters, flat rides, and a large kiddie area themed to Angry Birds.

I'm so glad the reviews are back. I think I would prefer Powerland because Junker Looks awesome, and Pitts Special and Thunderbird look fun too. Tornado and some of the other stuff looks fun here but most of the coasters are clones. I also feel like this park might feel too crowded because of how small it is.

@@CanobieCoaster I suspect that's due to reliability issues. This is my home park and i have not had a single visit there where at least at some point of the day Take off hadn't been down for maintenance. Even personally i've had more e-stop rides on it than regular rides on many other flat rides. This isn't an upkeep problem either as none of the parks other rides ever break down. The only ones that did were the old Jetstar and halfpipe which both were removed due to said issues.

This is my home park and I think it has a decent lineup but I'd like to see a new big rollercoaster bc I think this park needs it. Tornado is an ok head atraction but I think the park needs another big coaster... Linnanmäki got taiga and thats hard to beat and powerpark has a strong lineup so I think the park would benefit from a coaster that would break the finnish hight record maybe even a hypercoaster but I don't think they would invest into something like that but if they take out koskiseikkailu they get a lot of space where they could build a big coaster but these are just my opinion and I'd love to hear what you and other people think of this and how in you guys opinion they could improve this Parks lineup!

the park is too small to fit another big coaster. they alreasdy scrapped old rides to fit in Hype. if you ask me, they could ditch trombi or some of the flat rides and replace them with compact coasters

Good review! I haven't visited the park in a few years, but the impression that I've gotten is that the park does need a new stand-out roller coaster to compete with Junker and Taiga. Tornado was the undisputed king of Finnish roller coasters for many years, but it doesn't really have that same wow-effect that the newer rides in PowerLand and Linnanmäki have. Where they would fit it, I have no clue. I think the park is trying to get rid of Trombi, but that spot of land doesn't really give the park that much room to work with. We'll have to see what happens. And as for Tukkijoki, the log flume was actually designed and built by the park itself. I think that might be one reason for why the ride is so popular among the locals (Vuoristorata was also built by Linnanmäki itself, and it remains the most popular ride in the entire country today).

another fun fact: "trombi" is a term for a mini tornado. as we don't get full scale tornadoes here, whenever we get small, "spinning winds", we call them Trombis. they're often no more than 6 feet in diameter, often less, and deal next to no damage to houses. they're also called "pyörremyrsky" literally Spinning wind. "tukkijoki" literally means Log River so you said "the log river log river" Koskiseikkailu is "White water adventure" & vauhtimato can be translated as "speed worm/ maggot" I also dropped my phone and broke it while riding takeoff, as i forgot it in my pocket lolol. last time i was to this park, Hype didn't exist yet.

I'm honestly surprised at how positive the review is. Different strokes, of course! But as a local I just cannot recommend this park to anyone unless you want the credits. Tornado is the only decent ride there as the flats are almost all Zamperla dime a dozen and the coasters are either straight up bad or forceless clones with the exception of Tornado. There is also almost no effort into atmosphere in my view as everything is either concrete or a cardboard cutout and all the music is just random video game soundtracks. There's a severe lack of relaxed rides to take breaks on between thrill rides (dark ride, transport ride, ferris wheel, etc) and there's also almost no shade and water is expensive, so +30c and above summer days are a nightmare. I almost got heatstroke queuing for their at the time new tower Boom, as the queue is completely uncovered and regularly takes 30+ minutes. That is without mentioning that most of the paving is just concrete, cracked largely at that, and most queuelines are just switchbacks once again on concrete or even worse, shipping containers in the case of the Skyrocket II which worsens the heat aspect and drains any atmosphere. When I last visited in 2019, the only covered queue lines (Tornado, Half-Pipe) also stank horribly of urine. The front of the park is nicer, however there are next to no rides there besides koskiseikkailu so that's irrelevant. I genuinely would recommend skipping it unless you're rich and can justify getting the credits. Definitely not a full day park, especially if it's at all hot out. Either stick to Linnanmäki, or drive straight past it to Power Park. Both are infinitely better parks, Power Park handles the heat issue so much better even with the less covered areas (free water refills etc).
