The park is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with a one-hour break from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. for facility inspections.

The waterpark features a wide range of attractions, such as an 80-meter water sled, a lazy river, a polar bear slide, an air pool, and water cannons. Survival swimming classes are also available on-site for those who register in person.

Every Saturday, there will be magic shows, balloon shows, and water drum performances, as well as a mobile library program, all of which aim to boost satisfaction among family visitors.

For visitor convenience, the park offers large tents, air-conditioned rest areas, food trucks, and a first-aid room. Thanks to the advance reservation system introduced this year, guests can enter easily using a QR code.

Admission fees are 4,000 won for infants and children, and 6,000 won for teenagers and adults. Gumi City residents receive a 50% discount.

Gumi Mayor Kim Jang-ho stated, "With enhanced safety and entertainment, we hope citizens will make special memories this summer at the Nakdong River Waterpark."

By offering not just water play, but also performances, reading, and safety education, the Nakdong River Waterpark is expected to become a signature attraction, boosting Gumi's competitiveness as a summer tourism destination.
