Tip from our team
If you're visiting Camping Au Bord de l'Ourthe, I always recommend packing walking shoes alongside your swimming gear. Many guests arrive expecting a relaxing riverside holiday and quickly discover just how much there is to explore in the surrounding Ardennes. One of the best experiences is simply following the walking trails directly from the campsite, where you'll discover peaceful forests, riverside picnic spots and spectacular viewpoints without needing to drive. Mornings are perfect for canoeing or kayaking on the River Ourthe before returning for an afternoon swim in the heated pool. During warmer weather, children love searching for small fish and wildlife along the riverbanks while parents enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. If you're planning to visit La Roche-en-Ardenne, consider arriving early to explore the castle before enjoying lunch at one of the riverside terraces. Cyclists will appreciate the well-marked routes throughout the region, while nature lovers should bring binoculars, as deer, birds of prey and other wildlife are regularly spotted nearby. In the evenings, many guests enjoy relaxing outside their accommodation as the campsite becomes wonderfully quiet. If you're looking for local food, don't miss traditional Ardennes ham, local cheeses and Belgian beers in nearby villages. Returning guests often say the combination of outdoor adventure, genuine hospitality and beautiful scenery keeps bringing them back year after year.
