Funfields
Victoria, Australia · built 1985
Funfields (formerly Alpine Toboggan Park) is a 15.7-hectare (39-acre) theme park located in the suburban fringe town of Whittlesea, approximately 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of Melbourne, Australia. It is one of four major theme parks in Victoria. The park operates seasonally from November to April to align with Melbourne's climate, attracting over 200,000 visitors per season. Originally established in 1985 as the Alpine Toboggan Park, the site was acquired by the Verga family in 1987. Since rebranding to Funfields in 2005, the park has transformed from a small picnic park into a major attraction. It is noted for its collection of ProSlide water slides, including several that held world records for length and height at the time of their opening. Its newest attractions include the Lava Lagoon lazy river and Cyber Drift bumper cars (both opened in 2024), joining the Supanova water slide (2022) and the heated Volcano Beach wave pool (2018).
