About the event
In the woods along the Meuse near Gennep, the Het Heijderbos Aqua Mundo combines a thrilling wild-water channel, the Duo Racer and other slides with a wave pool, a snorkel pool with tropical fish, a children's pool and an outdoor pool. Day tickets are booked online with entry times from 10.30 am to 3 pm, and the evening ticket from 4.30 or 5 pm is cheaper. The park also has the Jungle Dome, a 2,500 m² indoor tropical play jungle with rope bridges and exotic animals, booked separately. Children under 13 must be with an adult. Tip: the Aqua Mundo is open until 9 pm every day, so there's no rush to arrive early.
