Country road with very little to no traffic

As of April 25: There's a restroom but no seating. No fireplace or firewood. Fires are prohibited. Given the lack of seating, I don't think the village youth meet here at the moment. Overall, a very quiet overnight spot.

This large artificial lake is a superb hiking spot. The tour of the lake is a route of approximately 16 kilometers, allowing you to discover the banks of the lake and the Helpe Majeure river, through beautiful meadows and the Abbé-Val-Joly national forest.

Lots of space and very well appointed. Toilets, bench and firewood. Unfortunately very close to the Ravel and therefore local young people arrive around 10 p.m. to make a fire and have fun. So avoid going there during school periods or on weekends. Be careful the area is infected with ticks!!! My repellent saved me but not my compatriot. it nevertheless remains one of the most beautiful bivouacs that I have been able to test in Belgium.
