  • 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 wooded site with generous pitches, clean facilities, and helpful staff. Pool and play areas are hits. Some note dated restrooms and occasional noise; a few wished for basic supplies like soap.

Powered grass campsite (family)

Liked Never liked anything in the park all of the staff pretended they could not speak any English when it clearly states on their website that they can all speak several different languages.

Disliked I dislike the full 7 days. I was there as there kept driving past my pitch. Staring at me, trying to intimidate me and they tried to come down and move me off my pitch Place me on the roadway, because they had double booked the page, which was completely false.

From the manager: The individuals concerned were staying on our campsite with a dog, despite being fully aware of our no-pets policy. Furthermore, neighboring campers reported disturbances caused by arguments between the individuals during the night. We also found that the sanitary facilities, including the toilets and shower areas, had been left in a dirty and unacceptable condition.

In view of these circumstances, we requested that they vacate the campsite and offered a refund for the days of their stay. They declined to leave, stating that they had also been refused admission at the surrounding campsites.

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.
