Parking Attractiepark de Waarbeek is usually straightforward if you know where to look: you can use the park’s own car park on Twekkelerweg 327, or choose nearby street parking in the surrounding area.

On-site parking at Attractiepark de Waarbeek (Twekkelerweg 327)

For the least walking and the simplest arrival, park directly at the attraction’s own grounds at Twekkelerweg 327. The parking cost is €6,50 per car. You purchase a parking token at the ticket/checkout area.

Follow the posted instructions and directions from parking staff. Parking is generally on your own responsibility, so make sure you park correctly and keep an eye on any specific rules displayed at the entrance/rows.

Nearby free street parking (green zone around Twekkelerweg 327)

Right by the park area, the streets around Twekkelerweg 327 are indicated as a “Groene zone”. In this green zone, parking is shown as free 24/7, 7 days a week—so you may not need to pay or display a ticket in the immediate vicinity.

Still, check the exact street signage as you park (some roads can have different rules even within the same general area).

Paid parking and blue zones if you go further into Hengelo

If the closest streets are full, you may end up in areas of Hengelo’s inner streets where paid parking and parking disc (blauwe zone) rules apply. A typical street-park rate in the centre is around €1,00 per 27 minutes (about €2,10 per hour), with payment days/times commonly set on weekdays and Saturday shopping hours.

For blue zones, you usually need a parking disc for a maximum stay of about 1 to 2 hours. In the centre area, the disc times are typically Mon–Sat 08:00–18:00, and often with extended rules on Thursday evening (up to around 21:00).

Residents/businesses in controlled areas may have the option for a parking permit, but visitors should plan around the public rules and time limits.

Arrival tips for family days (and what to do if you’re stuck)

• Decide your “risk level”: on-site parking (€6,50/car) is the simplest when the park is busy.
• Use the green zone first if you want to avoid street payment—then be ready to move if you hit a full block.
• If you’re running late, expect that further into Hengelo you’ll likely face paid parking or blue-zone time limits.
• If you want to reduce last-minute searching: you can check Mobypark for future availability around this area and compare it with the public options above.
