Duinrell is an amusement park situated in the town of Wassenaar, Netherlands on the estate of the counts Van Zuylen van Nijevelt. In addition to the main amusement park sporting about 40 different attractions, Duinrell has been critically acclaimed for its water park with swimming pool (the Tikibad [nl]), which boasts 21 waterslides and a kids' water park. The grounds also include campsites, lodges, and some sporting facilities.

The park has a mascot named Rick the Frog.[1]

History

[edit]

The Duinrell farm in Wassenaar dates as far back as 1646 as part of a large estate. In 1935 the estate opened to the public with a restaurant and "Oranjerie," eventually adding campgrounds, a swimming pool, and developing into a recreational estate.[2]

As of 2022, the park is visited by well over a million people each year.[3]
