In Mikkelparken, we regard your safety as extremely important. Safety is one of Mikkelparken’s core values, and we do our best to make the park feel safe for both our guests and employees.

If there is a need to evacuate the park, we have emergency exits from the gate below Grashoppa and below Solkro.

Defibrillator: There is a defibrillator in the entrance building. In Mikkelparken Ferietun there is a defibrillator on the wall in tthe reception.
Fire hoses, emergency ezits and defibrillators are marked on the park map.
Routines for missing children:
Have a chat with the kids before your visit to Mikkelparken about what they should do if you get separated from each other. The best scenario for children that cannot find their parents, is to stay where they are instead of wandering around looking for their parents. A good alternative is to agree on a meeting place in case you cannot find each other. For the youngest children, it is a good idea to write name and phone number of a parent, or use an ID bracelet. Our staff always checks for name/phone number labels on clothes when they find a solo child in the park.
The children and parents can always contact our staff in the park. They should be easily recognizable with their bright green uniforms with Mikkel’s logo. If we find a child that has been separated from their parents, or if parents cannot find their child, we have established procedures for this.
