Campers have their own parking spot on the camping site. The blue posts near the parking spots have the same number as the camping pitch. The car can park nearby the pitch to install your camping equipment or to unload your purchases, but afterwards you are supposed to park your car on the parking spot.

Rescue post.
You can find the rescue station where you see the red life guard seat near the water and catering business De Specht. The life guards will see to the safety of our visitors. You will recognize them easily because they wear a yellow t-shirt with the logo of De Lilse Bergen. In case no life guards are present, the red flag is put up at the rescue post and you are not allowed to swim or play in the water.

Schools.
Schools can organize a school trip or a sports day. Our department of Sport and Recreation will gladly assist.
The playground and swimming pond of De Lilse Bergen are real assets for a school trip. Please notify us if you plan to visit us with a big group.

We also ask campers to sort out waste. The orange bag you will notice upon arrival is destined for remaining waste. All other waste can be sorted out and has to be brought separately to the waste park at the camping site entrance. You close the orange bag with a knot and put it in the container, of which you will find the opening next to the gate. For all other waste, you can open the waste park in the winter and low season with your access pass. During high season, the park is open from 10h30 till 12h30 and from 16h till 18h. Do not leave any waste in front of the gate, so everything will stay clean!
