It's definitely worth starting your family vacation with a visit to Aqualand Freizeitbad. The water park is very popular, it is a large complex with swimming pools, water slides and a sauna - as you can see, everyone can find here entertainment to their taste here. There are not so many rides for children here - only 10 slides, but it is a pleasure to ride them. The beautifully decorated center's star attraction is a "rocket slide".

Nearby is a place where you can try indoor climbing - we are talking about StadtteilWerkstatt Chorweiler.

Another water park is called Hildorado. It has several slides and no sauna, however, the water park is attractive with its spaciousness. It is small and comfortable, which makes it ideal for a small family. Just take into account that there is a lot of people here on weekends. A very large pool attracts many tourists, as well as a playground for the little ones - the smallest kids will easily find entertainment to their liking. A small restaurant features outdoor and indoor terraces. Nearby you will find Hilden Flames - Inline-Skaterhockey where kids can enjoy roller skating in a pretty nice atmosphere.

There are many beautifully designed thematic worlds (Africa, Mystic, Steampunk). A number of cafes offering a variety of foods and sweets is available on site.

Well, Neuland-Park is another place to have a good time playing on the playground. The park is full of interesting attractions and often serves as a venue for all kinds of children's events.
