| Notes: | On the cover of a LP single record (you know those black things with groves they had before CDs) produced by the park, there is a picture of a roller coaster. This roller coaster had a long white train as used on a Zierer Large Tivoli model. The park's former Avonturenslang was a Zierer Medium Tivoli model which used a much shorter train. This is rather unusual as it would indicate the park either had for a very short time a Large Tivoli model or possibly simultaneously two Tivoli models - one large and one medium. If anyone has any additional information on this little mystery, it would be welcomed. |
| History: | Founded in 1936 as a teahouse. Playground equipment was added which proved to be successful. Gradually more and more were added. The name "Elf Provinciën" means "Eleven Provinces" (The Netherlands had 11 provinces at the time). In 1978 the park was transformed into Avonturenpark Hellendoorn ("Avonturenpark" meaning "Adventure Park"). |
