Toverland, Amusement park in Horst aan de Maas, Netherlands
Toverland is an amusement park in Horst aan de Maas that spreads across six themed worlds with roller coasters, water rides and indoor attractions on extensive grounds in the Dutch countryside. The park combines indoor and outdoor sections, allowing visitors to enjoy rides and shows regardless of weather conditions.
The park opened in 2001 with indoor attractions only before gradually expanding to include outdoor areas. Over the years, new themed zones were added, transforming the park into one of the largest entertainment destinations in the Netherlands.
The name Toverland comes from the Dutch word for magic, reflecting the fairy tale atmosphere that shapes every corner of the park. Families often spend a full day here, moving between gentler rides and adrenaline-fueled coasters depending on the age and preferences of their children.
A mobile application shows real-time waiting times and helps with navigation between themed worlds. The covered indoor section makes the park a good option even during rain or cooler temperatures.
Troy in the Ithaka zone is the tallest, longest and fastest wooden roller coaster in the entire Benelux region. The construction uses over 1 million screws and nails, which is uncommon for wooden coasters of this scale.
