12 Things about Schlitterbahn Water Park

1. Schlitterbahn opens from March 9-17 during Spring Break for certain areas of the park. Then it is usually open weekends beginning in late-April and daily starting in mid-May. The waterpark is scheduled for full operation from June to mid-August. 
2. Schlitterbahn allows you to bring your own food and drink into the park. Please do not bring alcohol or glass containers.
3. Children under 3 years old are free. Schlitterbahn has six water playgrounds for kids. For the smallest children, Schatze’s Central Park in the Kinderlund section in the West Side of Schlitterbahn and Kinderhaven in the Blastenhoff section of the East Side of Schlitterbahn have been designed with little ones in mind.
4.  There are so many fun things to do at Schlitterbhan. You can get the map at the ticket counter or download the map on-line to plan your day in advance and get the most of the rides and activities.
5. It is best to leave important valuable items at home or in the car. Lockers are available for a fee with automated locks.
