Park sections

The park is divided into 8 sections, all containing a different theme. There is also a 9th section reserved for the waterpark.

Bondegårdsland

Bondegårdsland (English: Farmland) opened in 2015 and replaced the Lilleputland children's area. It thus takes up this same role, containing mostly kids and small family rides. The land has a farm theme, as opposed to Lilleputland which was unthemed.

The land has a total of 11 rides and 2 food stalls.

Dinosaurland

Dinosaurland opened in 2022 and replaced the Afrikaland area that used to occupy this area. Afrikaland was closed after the park faced criticism for stereotypes of African people in 2015, with Dinosaurland eventually becoming the land's replacement. The story of the land sees guests entering a digsite for dinosaur fossils, led by a company named Dino Inc. Though it seems that there is more going on as living dinosaurs have been sighted in the area.

The land has a total of 5 rides, a playground and a food stall.

Mexicoland

This area of the park is themed to western idea's of Mexico and the Mexican culture. It opened in 1994 and featured a minigolf course and a labyrinth upon opening. This labyrinth would be removed at the end of the 2003 season to make way for Speedy Gonzales. It has taken up parts of Sommerland in its expansions, with the exceptions of El Grito and Speedy Gonzales. Those rides stayed within the at that point determined boundaries of the area.

The land has a total of 4 rides, a minigolf course and 2 food stalls.
