Adrenark Adventure — Attraction in Abu Dhabi

My son said that the karting track here is the worst go kart track he has ever been on. The multi-level track system is a huge failure. First, the uphill ramps are too steep for the underpowered junior karts. If they let up on the accelerator for any reason while climbing a ramp the cart will not have enough torque to continue upward and it will roll back. The track marshal has to constantly push carts up the hill which is very dangerous.

Second, the track is too narrow everywhere except the ground level which almost eliminates any possible chance of overtaking another racer.

Third, the whole karting registration process is a nightmare and should be handled at the main counter near the entrance. I had to buy the karting experience then go wait in another line to check-in and be told to come back? That should all be done at the same time since its not part of the other packages anyway. I'm sure you might avoid a lot of upset parents by doing it that way. If I would have known at the first desk that the karting would take so long my son could have done other things instead.

Fourth, when we arrived at the karting there were only 2 employees operating the entire kart track. 1 guy registering people and issuing helmets/suits. The 2nd guy was the marshal getting the kids in their karts and overseeing the race. Both guys were running around aimlessly to no avail. You CANNOT operate this multi-level track with only 1 marshal. He was constantly running up and down staircases, running across busy tracks, and pushing karts uphill for for the entire 12 minutes. Finally some other guys came and they told me they were the next shift but that is ridiculous. There should be a minimum of 5 or 6 employees operating this kart track whenever it is in use not only for the safety of the drivers, but also for the employees safety.

My son arrived at the karting at 1220 and we were told to come back at 1310 for him to ride the karts. He sat in the safety briefing room for almost 30 minutes alone because the staff said its for drivers only. I entered the briefing room anyway and waited with him for another 30 minutes until he was finally able to drive the kart.

Lastly, my son is not new to karting and has driven at many other tracks and has told me that this is by far the worst karting track and experience he has had. I do not think that this karting experience is worth anywhere near the amount they charge. They should either get rid of this track completely or charge half of what the are currently charging for this. The space where the track is could be put to better use for other attractions.

Ben (7) “It is the best park ever” Firtuna (11) “I had a fantastic day it was as good as Motiongate, which is one of my favourite theme parks!!”

We took a 7yo and 11yo to Adrenark on a Saturday afternoon - we would have been there in the morning but for some other commitments - at 13:00 it was still fairly quiet, but I’m sure if we had got there earlier it would have been super quiet. As the afternoon wore on, it got busier, increasing queue times on some of the activities.

As an indoor park, it is an ideal summer venue and worth the 1hr 15min drive from Dubai from time to time when you fancy a change.

The activities are varied and there is plenty to keep most age groups occupied. We stayed for about 4.5 hours, but could have stayed longer.

Good to know: The kids are both over 130cm tall, and so were able to do most of the activities, two exceptions: the high via ferrata, which only the oldest could do as she is tall enough. However, it was quite demanding and left us wondering if the height restriction should actually be taller (there some parts that were definitely a stretch, and the ropes could be a little tricky); and One of the two rides. Parents don’t have to pay to be in the park with the kids (we weren’t sure - I forgot to ask when I called ahead); There is a small but good selection of dining options - and it was possible to get something vaguely healthy; The park doesn’t have water fountains to refill water bottles, so take plenty or you’ll end up having to buy plastic bottles; The karting is not included in the activity packages. we didn’t do it as the kids were happy enough doing the other activities…maybe next time.

All in all,...

I recently visited Andrenark Adventure park that offered an incredible range of activities for both kids and adults. The park was a true wonderland of fun and excitement, with so much to see and do that I barely knew where to start.

One of the highlights of the park was the multiplex karting which allowed visitors to zoom around a twisting, turning track in high-speed go-karts. The karts were well-maintained and the track was exciting and challenging, with plenty of hairpin turns and steep drops to keep things interesting.

Another thrilling attraction was the zip line like slide , which allowed visitors to soar high near the the park roof and take in stunning views of the entire park. The zip line was well-designed and very safe, with all necessary safety equipment provided and strict safety protocols in place.

For those who preferred a more physical challenge, there was an extensive climbing area with multiple walls and obstacles to tackle. The climbing area was well-maintained and had a variety of difficulty levels, so there was something for everyone regardless of skill level.

In addition to these main attractions, the park also offered a wide range of other activities, including a trampoline area, a ropes course and more. There was truly something for everyone, and I was impressed by the sheer variety of options available.

Overall, I would highly recommend this indoor adventure park to anyone looking for a fun and exciting day out. With so many activities to choose from, it's the perfect destination for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking to blow off some steam and have a great time.
