Comfortable holiday for sports enthusiasts
Comfortable holiday for sports enthusiasts Do you like natural surroundings with woods, lakes and meadows? Do you like to be active? But would you really like to enjoy the same comforts as home? Then a holiday at Golden Lakes Village in the Belgian Ardennes is perfect for you. The view from the many windows of your villa is that of Lac de la Plate Taille, one of the large Eau d'Heure lakes. These are magnificent surroundings for anyone who loves water sports. From pedal boats to fly boards The Eau d'Heure lakes came into being because of the construction of a dam, and have become a popular destination among water sports enthusiasts. You can go for or discover all forms of water recreation: swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, surfing, sailing, kayaking, cycling on a pedal boat. But there are also more challenging activities such as diving, waterskiing and flyboarding. There are various businesses that rent or lease around Golden Lakes Village. Abseiling between the trees Are you more of a landlubber than a water rat? This part of the Ardennes is also great for hiking and cycling along the banks of the lakes or through the vast woods and meadows. Real daredevils go to the nearby Nature Park, where there are various levels of tree climbing adventures. You can also abseil over the water or take a Tarzan leap between the trees. Village along the waterfront Golden Lakes Village appears to be a quiet village along the waterfront. However, the small winding streets hold spacious villas that are equipped with every convenience and have plenty of space around them. Included in the park complex is the 'bistronomic' restaurant La Brasserie des Lacs, where you can dine at your leisure and enjoy the local dishes. The Golden Lakes Hotel is at the same location and, for a fee, you can use its various wellness facilities. An underground boat trip During your camping holiday at Golden Lakes Village, be sure to visit the La Plate Taille dam. There is a wonderful view of the lake area from the tower in the dam - 107 metres high. You can also learn all there is to know about generating electricity. Another fun family outing is the Neptune Caves near Petigny. You follow the Eau Noire river underground for a short while. Your visit starts on foot and continues in a small boat. The finale of the tour is an amazing light and sound show by the underground waterfalls.
