Schlitterbahn Waterpark New Braunfels

The original section of the park incorporates the cool, spring-fed water of the Comal River into its rides, creating a unique environment shaded by towering cypress trees. Visitors navigate a complex system of interconnected tube chutes that wind through the landscape. The newer sections offer modern water coasters, multi-story speed slides, and large wave pools. The park spans over 70 acres, requiring a tram system to move guests between the distinct areas.
