The park covers approximately 120 hectares of diverse terrain, including woods and meadows.
It is home to the only elephant group in the Netherlands that can be observed in a large-scale savannah setting.
The park participates in international EEPs (EAZA Ex-situ Programmes) for species conservation.
Visitors can observe animals from the water via the 'Safari Boat' which provides a different perspective from the land-based routes.
The design prioritizes large, naturalistic paddocks that allow animals to exhibit natural group social behaviors.
The park's layout was specifically engineered to minimize barriers between visitors and animals, utilizing elevation and water trenches as natural boundaries.
Safaripark Beekse Bergen is the largest wildlife park in the Benelux region, allowing visitors to view over 1,250 animals from 150 species. The park is uniquely structured as a drive-through safari, enabling guests to traverse expansive enclosures in their own vehicles. Visitors can also experience the park via a guided bus tour, a walking safari route, or a boat safari across the park's central water bodies. The animal habitats are designed to simulate African savannah and woodland environments, housing species including lions, elephants, cheetahs, and giraffes. The park operates as part of a larger resort complex that includes dedicated camping and bungalow facilities. It integrates conservation efforts with public observation, focusing on European breeding programs for endangered species.
The elevated observation decks near the giraffe and zebra enclosures provide the best wide-angle perspectives.
