Personally, I’m not super into amusement parks (I haven’t been since i was young) but a friend has told me about Energylandia in Poland, supposedly one of the best in the world. We’ve been planning a few weekend trips for this summer and I wanted to know if anybody here has been? Worth the trip (I’m coming from the UK), and any standout rides? Any other tips?

A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.
Here are some important resources:
Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).
Some basic rules:
Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.
Back up facts with sources as much as possible
No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.
No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.
Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.
No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)
No posting personal information.
No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

I visited in October last year (also from the UK) with a group of friends. I'd say its 100% worth the trip! Zadra (my current #1 coaster) and Hyperion are the 2 standout coasters. Abyssus is a excellent new-gen Vekoma multi-launch. Plus the park has a huge number of family and kiddy creds.
My main advice would be to pre-book your transport to the park well in advance. The park is located in Zator which is about halfway between Krakow and Katowice, but it is in the middle of nowhere. We stayed in Krakow and did 2 days at the park. The park runs a daily coach between Krakow and the park but by the time we came to book it, seats for our second day had run out. Zator does have a train station so we assumed we'd be able to get a train, but the staff at Krakow's main station weren't overly helpful and we ended up taking a taxi. (Fortunately Poland is pretty cheap so it wasn't too bad after we split the cost between us). We took the coach on the first day, and it was far easier so I'd highly recommend doing that. You can book on their website (https://energylandia.pl/en/dojazd/autobus/)
Happy to answer any other questions :)
