Hooghmoed voor het eerst ingetekend op plattegrond

This news article from Wonderwijzer reports on the new Efteling attraction, Hooghmoed, which has been officially drawn on the park's blueprint for the first time. The blueprints are displayed on construction boards near Baron 1898 and the Flying Dutchman, with an alternative path now open next to Piraña due to maintenance on the Flying Dutchman. The inclusion of Hooghmoed on the blueprints may suggest an earlier opening than the planned summer of 2026, as hinted by an Efteling employee. Construction has resumed on the site after a winter break, with a foundation already laid and a chimney pillar erected, fitting the mining theme of the Baron 1898 area. Hooghmoed will be a new family attraction next to the dive coaster, featuring a freefall experience in one of three towers, with an expected capacity of 600 guests per hour.
