Efteling

Efteling is the favourite day trip attraction in the Netherlands, with no fewer than six roller coasters and 29 unique fairy tales. Not surprising therefore that Efteling is one of the top attractions in Brabant, the Netherlands and even in Europe for families with young children, as well as for teenagers and grandparents. Adults marvel at the beauty of the Fata Morgana and enjoy the Piraña just as much as the children, and clench their knuckles just as hard before Baron 1898 plunges them into the mine shaft. Come and be enchanted by this must-visit in Brabant.

Zoover Award for the most popular holiday park and runner-up in the Diamond Themepark Award Europe
The award-winning amusement park also offers several types of overnight accommodation, and with a total of 3000 beds it is perfect for a stay of several days. One of these – Efteling Bosrijk – won the Zoover Award in the Netherlands for the most popular holiday park in 2016. Accessibility for the disabled was also praised. The park also has special accommodation for disabled guests and there are special entrances for the disabled at several of the attractions.

Open365 days a year
De Efteling welcomes guests from all over the world. All information about the park, both printed and in the Efteling app is offered in English, French, German and Dutch.
