  • Tree-shaded site in the Campine region, a five-minute drive from Balen
  • Pakawi Park zoo and Fietsen door de Bomen cycle path 15 minutes’ drive
  • Playground and outdoor pool with slides, plus café and sports hall
The Campine region of north-eastern Belgium is a top destination for cyclists – or, indeed, for anyone keen to explore its wetlands and forests. Making the most of all that requires some accommodation, and slap bang in the middle of this area is Camping GT Keiheuvel. With spacious pitches, this site is popular with families thanks to the presence of a play area and an outdoor swimming pool with a slide (open during high season only). While the kids entertain themselves and make new friends, the grownups can relax poolside or, if they’re feeling particularly active, hit the on-site sports hall, with a gym and tennis courts. A 10-minute walk past Aeroclub Keiheuvel (where you can watch gliders take to the air), leads to a recreation park with an adventure playground, miniature golf and go-karts. Meanwhile, cyclists shouldn’t miss the Fietsen door de Bomen (15 minutes’ drive or half an hour by bike), a cycle path with stretches going through the tree canopy. This site scores highly in terms of leisure facilities, but what about amenities? Well, it’s top marks again, with showers and a toilet block (including facilities for the disabled), plus a washing-up area, launderette and recycling points. There’s also a café for when you start to feel hungry, or you can stock up on provisions (the nearest supermarket is a five-minute drive away) and have a barbecue. There are also plenty of dining options in the town of Balen (five minutes).

What customers say

This campsite offers spacious, well-maintained pitches, many in woodland settings. Visitors praise the friendly staff, clean facilities (though some note they are dated), and excellent swimming pool. The location is ideal for cycling and exploring. Some guests report issues with WiFi and occasional noise. A few minor points include toilet paper placement and a lack of on-site shops before the pool opens.

Electric grass pitch (waterside)

Liked The shower block was decent . They were warm and clean . We liked how it was hidden away in a forest. The resident ginger cat :-) . Kids loved the pool but I didn’t go in as they said it was too cold . Make sure you bring your inflatables as the lifeguard was blowing up inflatables . We also liked that lidi was a 20 minute bike ride away and we were able to enjoy the local area and the nice houses :-) .

Disliked The cafe by the pool was closed. Unsure why .
WiFi was a bit hit and miss, we only wanted to use it a bed time so when it didn’t work it was a bit frustrating but wasn’t the end of the world :-) .

Liked Size of pitch.

Disliked Three outfits into two pitches next to us resulting in no privacy and noise till late. Toilet and shower block very dated like the 1950 era, needs updating. Chemical toilet showed emptying into open drain, not good.

Local attractions

Lions and tigers and bears – oh my. These are just some of the residents at Pakawi Park (15 minutes’ drive), a forested zoo where you can also see cheetahs, capuchin monkeys and pink flamingoes. And when the kids get tired of the animals (as if…), they can take a break on the giant bouncy castle. Sahara Lommel (half an hour) is a nature reserve named after the large expanse of sand at its core. Unlike its African namesake, though, this area is surrounded by green forests and dotted with lakes. You can spot birds like grebes and ducks here, or climb the 30-m Uitkijktoren Lommelse Sahara tower for far-reaching views. Amusement rides await at Bobbejaanland (35 minutes), with something for every age group – from gentle boat trips along a lazy river to thrilling rollercoasters and water attractions – all spread between four themed areas, including a Cowboy Town.
