Hiker's huts
Is cycling also one of your favourite spare time occupations? Are you looking for the ideal formula for discovering the Kempen by bicycle and on a limited budget? Then just mark out a route past various hiker's huts. You can find hiker's huts at fourteen campsites in the Kempen.
Scheduled major events
Events are regularly hosted by the Zilvermeer park, which tries to minimise any nuisance for other visitors or guests. The two major festivals in 2011, i.e. the Daydream Festival and Pennenzakkenrock, may cause (noise) nuisance; please take this into consideration or book a stay in another period. The Daydream Festival will take place on Saturday April 16 and Pennenzakkenrock on Tuesday June 28. The assembly and disassembly will take approximately one week before and a few days after the event.
An original accommodation
A hikers' hut is a cosy, pleasant and functional place to stay. Furthermore, it is a cheap form of accommodation. The Zilvermeer has five hikers' huts of 15 m² each.
You can also find hikers' huts at 14 other campsites in the region of Kempen.
Fully equipped
Each hut is equipped with a table, chairs, beds, and a simple method of cooking. This gives you the great advantage that you do not have to bring a tent, sleeping mats or camping stove with you; a sleeping bag and pillowcase are sufficient. Furthermore, there is heating available in the well-insulated huts, so that you do not have to suffer from any cold in the low season.
There is no place for washing or going to the toilet in the huts themselves, but the sanitary provisions of the recreation centre are excellent. Pets are not allowed.
You can read all about the huts in our welcome brochure and also take a look at our price list.
Summer activities
In the summer months we offer our guests a varied activities programme; for more information, contact the activity desk. Only individual visitors or families can book the activities programme.
Upon request, an adapted programme is available for groups. The programme must be booked at least two weeks in advance, depending on the staff members/activity leaders we can place at your disposal at that time.
Library – Free Internet
The Zilvermeer park has its own library with a wide range of comics for the young and old, children’s books and novels. Membership is free, each lent book costs only ten eurocents per lending period. Borrowers are allowed to borrow five books and/or ten comics, for a 15-day lending period, which can be renewed once for another fifteen days. For more information, see the Zilvermeer library rules.
The library is located near the activity desk in the administrative building. During opening hours you can also surf the internet for free in the library; see the rules for more information. To surf the internet with your own laptop in the camping site’s sanitary buildings, the camping site reception will give you a password.
