Villages nearby

About a 30-minute drive from the glamping is Thorn. This picturesque village is also called the "White town" because of the white facades of the houses and monuments.

Another town nearby is Maaseik, about 20 miles away. This historic town on the Meuse has a rich history and that can be seen in the beautiful old buildings. The museum of the Van Eyck brothers is worth a visit. Maaseik also has several nice stores and terraces where you can enjoy a Belgian beer.


Active day on the Meuse

After a 20-minute drive, you reach the Meuse River. And how much fun is it to discover this piece of nature not from the banks, but from the water? At several places it is possible to rent a kayak, canoe or raft and discover Rivierpark Maasvallei. Spot Galloway cattle or wild horses during your trip, and enjoy the green surroundings. A fun and active outing for the whole family!

Imagine yourself in Japan

Are you making a trip to Hasselt? Then don't skip the Japanese garden! After a half-hour drive, you step out into a green world full of beautiful trees, bridges and streams. Watch a tea demonstration or take a course, calligraphy or origami. On Sundays and holidays, you can take a guided tour of the garden. That way you get to experience a bit of Japan, but from Belgium.
