  • 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

Spacious, woodland pitches and super-friendly staff feature heavily. Pool, playground, and facilities are clean & accessible. Some sanitary blocks are a bit old-fashioned but functional. Great value, relaxed vibe. Minor noise/maintenance issues mentioned, but most guests highly recommend and will be back.

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.
