Traveler reviews
Axel de Kimpe
★★★★★2 years agoAlways a pleasure to visit, a fountain of new memories you will have when you leave. The children have so much to choose from and the water play is obviously a major draw in the summer ! Good food and drinks are also on offer. 👌🏻🥂

★★★★★Edited 4 years agoThis park is big enough to go jogging, suited for a nice walk (the whole park is 5k steps), your children can play here, you can go picnic with friends, and there is also a bar where you can go drink something with your friends to enjoy the evening.
