Ragnfrid’s saga

Ragnfrid’s saga is a Viking ride where you get to follow along on a trip to the Viking Age. The journey begins at Frösala Farm with Ragnfrid and her husband Harald. Then you proceed to go on a journey where you witness plundering in the west and slave trade in the east. With sounds, light and atmospheric environments you travel through the 11-minute journey that is told by Ragnfrid herself.

Ragnfrids saga is offered in the following languages: Swedish, English, Russian, Finnish, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, French and German.

Good to know about Ragnfrid’s saga

We recommend that children under the age of 7 go in adult company as the Viking ride can be considered a bit scary by some.
For those with hearing impairment, there are scripts for the Viking ride printed in Swedish and English. Ask for these down in the ride.
Wheelchairs are not possible to be brought onboard the ride, but one of the carts has a foldable side which makes it easier to move from the wheelchair to the wagon. In the wagon you must sit with bent legs.
