Schatze’s Storybrook Park
Schatze’s Storybrook Park will be located in the original section of the park. Named after Texas’s favorite short-legged pup and Schlitterbahn mascot, Schatze, the reimagined area transforms everyone’s favorite fairy tales into puppy-themed fairy “tails.”

The new kids' area will be home to Bow Wow Blaster, the world’s first kids’ water coaster, a pint-sized take on Schlitterbahn’s famous Master Blaster. Kids 12 and under will enjoy all-new water slides, 70+ interactive water features and spray toys, splash pads, and a ginormous, 1,200-gallon tipping water bucket. Guests also will also enjoy new shaded areas that offer plenty of room to relax.

Storybrook Park is divided into three storybook themed lands: Fur-Bidden Forest, Schatze’s Paw’nd and Fairy Tail Trail. Sidewalks connect the three areas like a babbling brook—a “storybrook”— that cascades through an enchanted land. Everyone will giggle at Schatze’s wacky, watery take on classic storybooks, including Little Red Riding Hound, Houndsel and Petzel, Rapawnzel and the Three Little Pugs.

To celebrate the major announcement and upcoming season, Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is offering an unbeatable deal on 2024 Season Passes. Guests who buy next year’s pass also receive unlimited visits for the rest of 2023, along with unlimited visits for the entire 2024 season. All of this at the lowest price of the year of just $95.
