La Ruche by FriBowling
Looking for an outing that lets you unwind in any weather? Just a stone's throw from Fribourg, at the Forum, La Ruche brings together trampolines, bowling, an interactive arena, and a Kids Park for the little ones, all under one roof. There's plenty to keep the whole family entertained, from toddlers to teenagers.
A huge indoor playground at Forum Fribourg
In Granges-Paccot, just north of Fribourg, La Ruche occupies a vast leisure space in the heart of the Forum. It features nearly 900 m² of trampolines, twelve bowling lanes, a large interactive arena, billiards, arcade games, and a space dedicated to children. It's the perfect spot for a rainy afternoon, a birthday, or a cousin outing. Everything is grouped together, bright, and designed for movement. You can switch between activities or stick to one, depending on your children's energy.
What your children will discover
The older ones dive into the trampoline park and its bouncing area, jumping, diving into the foam pit, and testing their balance. The interactive arena HiT iT! turns the walls into light targets where you need to run, aim, and score points. Precision enthusiasts aim for the pins at bowling or try their hand at billiards. The little ones have their own universe, the Kids Park, with slides, climbing structures, and a soft area for toddlers.
What to do there and the atmosphere on site
The atmosphere is lively, a bit noisy, and joyful. Families or groups come together, alternating between zones, and taking a break at the food corner. Parents can watch the little ones from the edges of the Kids Park or jump on the trampolines themselves. Individual lockers are available to store your belongings. During holidays and weekends, the crowd increases, especially in the late afternoon.
