  • 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

Pitches generally grand and in lovely woods. Facilities usually spotless and work well, though some say they're a bit old-fashioned. Pool and sports stuff are big hits. Some folks mention dodgy Wi-Fi and not much to buy or eat onsite, especially off-season. A few grumbles about noise and toilet roll holders.

Electric grass pitch (woodland)

Liked Nice pitch under the trees, very spacious, had our own electricity point and tap.

Disliked No soap in the toilets, showers were free but not the best.
Swimming pool closes at 7pm and opens at 11am, we arrived at 6.30pm and had to check out at 11 the next morning so potentially would miss out, fortunately the staff allowed us to use the pool for an hour after we had checked out.
Times shown on Pitch Up are incorrect- reception closes at 6pm not 7pm (we had to contact the out of hours number), and check out is 11am not 11.30am

Electric grass pitch (family)

Liked The site as a whole was brilliant. Lovely pool area with slide/inflatable. Near by toilet/shower block.
It was very well located as a base for our family holiday. It felt pretty safe for our young children too.

Disliked Complaints about us walking through pitches. The complaint was not fed back to us until we approached reception with a query. Also, I do feel it was miscommunication as we went to great lengths to ensure our children respected other people’s pitches and walked around. Petty, but frustrating.
They introduced a token system at the pool bar on our last day which seemed to over complicate payment. We had to pay by card for a token to buy a drink, all through the same till!

Electric grass pitch (family)

Liked 0

Disliked Wir waren leider sehr enttäuscht. Der Hauptgrund, warum wir diesen Campingplatz gebucht haben, war der Pool – aber wir konnten ihn überhaupt nicht nutzen.

Am Anreisetag kamen wir gegen 16:00 Uhr an. Der Pool war nur bis 19:00 Uhr geöffnet und wir konnten ihn an diesem Tag nicht mehr nutzen. Am nächsten Tag war das Wetter zunächst schlecht. Als es gegen 16:00 Uhr wieder besser wurde, wollten wir zum Pool gehen.

Wir fragten einen Mitarbeiter am Pool. Er schickte uns zur Rezeption. Dort war jedoch bereits geschlossen. Deshalb gingen wir wieder zurück zum Pool. Dort hing nur eine Telefonnummer. Als wir dort anriefen, wurde uns gesagt, dass der Leiter bereits nach Hause gegangen sei. Deshalb blieb der Pool geschlossen, obwohl das Wetter am Nachmittag wieder gut war.

Unsere Kinder haben sich insgesamt drei Mal umgezogen, weil sie sich so auf den Pool gefreut hatten, und mussten jedes Mal enttäuscht zurückgehen. Das war sehr traurig.

Außerdem gab es auf den Toiletten häufig kein Toilettenpapier. Insgesamt waren wir mit unserem Aufenthalt leider nicht zufrieden und würden den Campingplatz deshalb nicht weiterempfehlen.

Liked Abbiamo soggiornato solamente una notte ma ci siamo trovati benissimo. Servizi puliti, personale super cortese e spazio per mettere la tenda molto suggestivo. Dormire sotto una pineta ha un gran fascino.
Grazie molte.

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.
