Plopsaland Ardennes, formerly Plopsa Coo
Plopsaland Ardennes is the family theme park set right next to the Coo waterfall. It was called Plopsa Coo from 2005 to 2025: on 5 July 2025 the Plopsa group renamed it Plopsaland Ardennes while opening Mayaland, a new themed zone around Maya the Bee and the park’s biggest investment since the takeover. You will find roller coasters, thrill rides, attractions for small children and the chairlift up to the waterfall viewpoint. It makes a full-day or half-day outing from the campsite, 15 minutes away. Tickets are bought in advance on the park’s official website, often cheaper than at the gate.
The Coo waterfall
The Coo waterfall is one of the best-known waterfalls in Belgium. It drops about 15 metres into the Amblève, at the heart of a steep bend in the river, and flows year-round. Access is free from the village bridge and from the footpaths along the banks. The Plopsaland Ardennes chairlift climbs to a panoramic viewpoint over the waterfall and the valley (ticket required). In the evening, once the park visitors have left, the village is quiet again.

Kayaking on the Amblève
The Amblève is one of the most popular rivers in Wallonia for kayaking. Coo Adventure rents out kayaks on waymarked stretches suited to families or more active paddlers. Descents last half a day. Water levels vary with the season: it is wise to check before setting off.
Coo Adventure
