FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Welcome To My Garden?

Welcome To My Garden is a network of citizens opening up their gardens to slow travellers in need of a camping spot. It's a not-for-profit initiative set up by a group of citizens.

Who is Welcome To My Garden for?

Welcome To My Garden has been created for hikers and cyclists who need a camping spot on their trail at the end of the day. It isn’t meant to replace fully-fledged campsites; just a safe spot for the night! Consider it an addition to Belgium’s network of bivouacking sites.

How does Welcome To My Garden work?

People who want to open up their garden to travellers can add their garden by filling out the form on the website (click the "Add your garden" button). People who want to stay at one of the campgrounds can then contact the garden owners to arrange their stay.

How do I get to my campground?

Welcome To My Garden has been set up to meet the needs of slow travellers: hikers and cyclists who need a camping spot at the end of the day. For this reason you are supposed to arrive at your camping spot on foot or by bike, or by public transport – definitely not by car. Of course you can drive to the start of your trail – as long as you don’t turn up at your host’s in your car!

How does Welcome To My Garden guarantee my privacy as a host?

All your personal details are protected by the login system. If you are a host, we will not display your house number or exact location on the map. You can give this to your guests once you’re in touch with them. You decide how you want them to contact you: by email, by phone, or both.
