By limiting the number of priority queue passes, we can create a better experience both for the guests who need the support the most and for other visitors to the park.

To create the best possible conditions for everyone, we recommend visiting during our quieter periods, primarily weeks 25–26 and weeks 32–33, when wait times are usually short. During these weeks, we offer a 10% discount on admission, or 30% off lodging and admission for overnight guests.

To ensure that our procedures are clear and apply equally to all guests, we do not make any individual exceptions to our guidelines for accessibility wristbands.

We're also happy to offer tips on how to plan your day to avoid the times when lines are usually the longest. 

Can I provide a doctor's note, a diagnosis certificate, or other documentation?

Yes. A valid medical certificate from a healthcare provider that clearly confirms the need for an accessibility bracelet. Accessibility wristbands are also available to guests with documentation confirming their right to personal assistance or by presenting a valid companion certificate. 

What do you mean by being eligible for personal assistance or being able to present a valid companion certificate?

By “eligible for personal assistance,” we mean guests who have been granted personal assistance by the municipality or the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. 

By “valid companion certificate,” we mean a companion certificate or equivalent document issued by a municipality, region, public transportation company, or other established organization that demonstrates that the person is entitled to have a companion with them during activities and events. 

By “medical certificate from a valid healthcare provider,” we mean a certificate from the treating physician that supports the need for priority access.  

I don't have a certificate, a companion pass, or a doctor's note—what applies in that case?

Ddiagnosis certificates, certificates from school or rehabilitation services, printed prescriptions or other medical documentation do not count as a decision regarding personal assistance or a companion certificate and therefore do not serve as a basis for the issuance of an accessibility wristband. Nor do we make any individual assessments based on diagnoses or medical certificates. Only children with a decision regarding personal assistance, a companion certificate, or a doctor’s note are eligible to receive an accessibility bracelet from us. 

Why did you choose this solution?

To ensure that our procedures are clear, consistent, and applied equally to all guests, we follow common guidelines for accessibility wristbands throughout the season. Since, as an amusement park, we are unable to make individual assessments of support needs, we rely on decisions regarding personal assistance, valid medical certificates, or valid companion certificates. This allows us to rely on assessments already made by the relevant authorities or other established organizations while ensuring consistent treatment for all visitors. 

As a smaller amusement park, we’re also able to offer naturally short wait times during certain parts of the season. For many guests, a visit during our off-season can be a great option for ensuring the smoothest and most enjoyable experience possible—even without priority access. 

Does the accessibility wristband apply to all activities?

The accessibility wristband is valid for our staffed activities. Some activities may have specific safety rules or restrictions. 

Is the accessibility wristband valid all day?

Yes, the accessibility wristband is valid for the entire day of your visit. 

Where do I pick up my accessibility wristband?

Information regarding drop-off and handling is provided at the service desk upon arrival at the park. 

Will the entire group receive accessibility wristbands?

No, as a rule, the entire family does not receive accessibility wristbands; instead, they must wait in line with the other guests. Accessibility wristbands are provided to the child for whom the documentation applies, as well as to any accompanying person or personal assistant.

How can we reduce wait times during our visit?

There are several ways to plan your day to make your visit as smooth as possible. Many guests start their day in the amusement ride area and head to the water park later. By swimming in the morning instead and visiting the amusement ride area in the middle of the day, wait times can often be shorter. Generally, weekdays 25–26 and weeks 32–33 are less crowded than the peak season. 

I or my child has special needs or questions about accessibility. Who can I contact?

We recommend contacting our customer service before your visit. We’d be happy to provide information about the park, our activities, and how you can best plan your day. 

Why have you changed your guidelines for accessibility wristbands?

In recent years, the number of accessibility wristbands has increased significantly. As a small park, we have limited capacity to handle a large number of priority access requests while still striving to offer the best possible experience for all guests. 

To ensure that our procedures are clear, sustainable, and consistent, we have therefore decided to provide accessibility wristbands to guests who are eligible for personal assistance, can present a valid medical certificate, or can present a valid companion certificate. We are unable to make our own assessments based on various certificates and therefore choose to rely on assessments already made by the responsible authorities and other established healthcare providers. 

As a smaller amusement park, we’re also able to offer naturally short wait times during certain parts of the season. For many guests, a visit during our off-season can be a great option for ensuring the smoothest and most enjoyable experience possible—even without priority access. 

Is there a rest area?

Yes, Leksand Sommarland a combined rest and nursing room with space for a small group, such as a family. Contact the Service Desk when you arrive to use this room. The room cannot be reserved; it’s first come, first served.
