Would you like a family holiday where nature, swimming and easy-going outdoor activities come together? Camping La Colline is a four-star family campsite near Virton, in Belgium's attractive Gaume region, close to the French and Luxembourg borders. Set across almost 10 hectares, the campsite occupies a green, gently elevated location with attractive views over the surrounding countryside.
The atmosphere is particularly suited to families with younger children, thanks to the outdoor heated swimming pool, separate toddler pool, large playground and summer entertainment programme. Older children can also make use of the football and volleyball facilities, table tennis and pétanque. Spacious pitches, glamping accommodation, mobile homes, bungalows and safari tents give families plenty of choice.
And what makes the location special? You are close enough to Virton for everyday shopping and restaurants, yet surrounded by countryside ideal for walking and cycling. The famous Gaume region, often associated with its relatively mild climate and attractive villages, is right on your doorstep.
For a day out, would you prefer history or adventure? The magnificent Orval Abbey, the Vauban citadel at Montmédy and the Maginot Line forts are excellent choices, while the wider region offers kayaking, mountain biking and family attractions.
The campsite is best suited to families wanting a relaxed outdoor holiday rather than a huge resort-style waterpark. It works particularly well for children aged roughly 3–12, with plenty to keep younger families occupied while parents enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Please note: Groups of young people, whether minors unaccompanied by a legal guardian or adults, are not permitted to stay at the campsite.

Tip from our team
If you are choosing Camping La Colline for a family holiday, I would make the most of its location rather than trying to find everything inside the resort. The great strength here is the combination of a comfortable base and a surprisingly varied region immediately outside the gates. For families with younger children, I would definitely choose accommodation close to the playground and swimming pool if that option is available. The pool is relatively shallow, with the main pool around 90 cm deep, making it particularly suitable for children who want to splash and play rather than swim serious lengths. The separate toddler area is another useful feature for little ones. For accommodation, the spacious safari tents and glamping options are worth considering if your family likes the camping atmosphere but wants more comfort. Families travelling with older children may prefer a mobile home or larger rental accommodation. One of my favourite suggestions is to set aside a morning for Torgny and another for Orval Abbey. They offer two completely different experiences and both showcase the character of the Gaume region. Montmédy is another excellent choice for a history-focused afternoon. For cyclists and walkers, bring suitable footwear and bikes if possible. The countryside around Virton is ideal for exploring at a slower pace. And if you are travelling with children during July or August, check the entertainment schedule before arrival, as this is when the programme is at its most active. Finally, remember that the campsite is spread over a sizeable, gently hilly area. If you have young children or prefer easy access to facilities, the precise location of your accommodation can make a noticeable difference to your stay.

A great camp site especially with youngsters“We stayed at this medium-sized campsite for nearly a week, and wished we'd booked-in longer; the layout of the site created really safe spaces for kids to play and get to know each other in the group of around 8 mobile homes. The staff were present but not over-bearing, and the campsite washroom facilities were of very high standard and spotlessly clean. The pool could be a bit crowded at times, and the shop had a bit of an odd selection of goods (- end of season?), but the on-site restaurant was absolutely excellent. A really great atmosphere here, and a good place for some really interesting local walks (e.g. the Druids Way).”

Very moderate, not worth repeating“Very bad showers and not really clean. Pool overcrowded with kids so nothing for adults. Camping pitches are spacious but campsite is overcrowded, so still little privacy. Would not choose this again and neither would the camping neighbors.”

Poorly maintained campsite and very dirty“Well we have been on this campsite for 6 days well we went home with screaming tires what a bad campsite this is, animation only for very small children. And things of the animation badly arranged. The pool is overcrowded there you can't even swim it's way too small, you get a ball in your neck and if you say anything you get a big mouth. You can also not have a drink at the campsite because in the tavern that comes with it you can only eat and not have a drink while the taras is empty. We had a mobile home from eurocamps well this was really dirty the gum of the previous guests was still on the food, mold under the bath mat and the sink in the bathroom was brown also ran in the kitchen all bugs so first we had to clean ourselves before we spent the night, the beds are rock hard as if you were on a shelf. And I could go on and on. For us so NEVER again”
