Kaatsheuvel Guide: Efteling and Loonse en Drunense Duinen
Kaatsheuvel is best known for Efteling, the theme park that gives this North Brabant town an international profile. It is also a gateway to Loonse en Drunense Duinen National Park, bringing a major leisure attraction and a protected natural landscape into the same destination. Together, these are the principal reasons to visit this part of the Netherlands.
With roughly 16,600 residents, Kaatsheuvel is the largest town and administrative centre of the municipality of Loon op Zand, which also includes De Moer and Loon op Zand. Its own town centre provides the local, everyday setting beyond its better-known attractions.
What to see and do in Kaatsheuvel
Efteling
Efteling is Kaatsheuvel’s defining visitor attraction and the source of its international reputation. The theme park is the natural focus for a visit centred on entertainment, with a significance that extends well beyond the town itself. Give it a distinct place in your itinerary: it is a principal destination in its own right, while Kaatsheuvel supplies the surrounding town setting.
Loonse en Drunense Duinen National Park
Loonse en Drunense Duinen National Park gives a visit to Kaatsheuvel a landscape focus alongside its theme-park appeal. The town serves as a gateway to the park, making the protected natural area an important part of the wider destination. For visitors interested in spending time outdoors, this is the key place to explore beyond the built-up town and its major leisure attraction.
The renewed town centre
Kaatsheuvel’s centre reflects a substantial redevelopment known as Bruisend Dorpshart, or “Sparkling Village’s Heart”. The former town hall was demolished in 2010 as part of the plan to create a lively new centre. A visit here brings the town’s municipal role into view and provides a useful local counterpoint to Efteling and the national park: this is the civic heart of Kaatsheuvel itself.
