Due to the construction preparations for the new hotel at Dwarrelplein, the entrance and exit gate at Pinokkio and De Rode Schoentjes to the Fairytale Forest are closed. It has been decided to make an extra gateway at the De Zes Dinaren (Six Servants) in addition to the traditional main entrance to the Fairytale Forest at Doornroosje (Sleeping Beauty).

De Efteling

The Efteling is a fantasy-themed amusement park in Kaatsheuvel in the Netherlands. The attractions are based on elements from ancient myths and legends, fairy tales, fables, and folklore.

The park was opened in 1952. It has since evolved from a nature park with a playground and a Fairytale Forest into a full-sized theme park. It now caters to both children and adults with its cultural, romantic, and nostalgic themes, in addition to its wide array of amusement rides.
