Thus, Bellewaerde Park immediately makes the largest investment ever in any season. “We consciously choose these investments in different areas. Our visitors will be amazed. Everywhere you go in the park, there will be something new to discover,” says general manager Stéphane Lemi.

In the India region, a new attraction “Hampi” is being built opposite the tiger enclosure. The attraction consists of gondolas that roll through the air. In addition, there will be a “hampi playground” play area: an Indian temple on which children can climb. Together they represent an investment of just under three million euros. The Canada region will receive the new attraction “Psssht Station”, a spinning cart family attraction.

Animal enclosures will also be adapted for the lions, Amur tigers, Rothschild giraffes and Grévy’s zebras. The fence is replaced by natural barriers such as water. In addition, footbridges will be installed over the accommodations so that visitors can get a better overview. Sustainable geothermal heating technology is chosen to heat the stables.

From April 1, KidsPark visitors can visit the renovated self-service restaurant “The King’s Table”. The restaurant has been given a completely medieval look. Visitors can enjoy classic dishes. From April 1, the amusement park will open its doors and visitors can discover new investments.
