Pour qui est Welcome To My Garden? -
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. Welcome To My Garden is non-commercial: no money should exchange hands. This means that as a host, you cannot ask your guests to pay for their stay.

Welcome To My Garden a été créé pour les randonneurs/randonneuses pédestres ou les cyclistes ayant besoin d’un coin d’herbe pour poser leur tente à la fin d’une longue journée. Le but n’est pas de remplacer les campings mais de simplement d’offrir un endroit en sécurité pour la nuit. Considérez le comme une addition au réseau des zones de bivouacs référencées en Belgique. Welcome To My Garden est une initiative sans but lucratif : aucun argent ne peut être échangé lors de son utilisation. En tant qu’hôte, vous ne pouvez donc pas demander aux voyageurs de payer pour la nuit. -

Welcome To My Garden est destiné aux voyageurs et voyageuses adeptes du slow travel, c’est à dire à celles et ceux qui arriveront au jardin à pied ou en vélo. Vous pouvez bien sûr utiliser les transports en commun ou votre voiture pour arriver au début de votre randonnée - mais vous ne pouvez pas arriver chez votre hôte directement en voiture. -

Et les installations? -
Basically hosts just offer a corner in their garden for you to pitch your tent on. In addition, they may offer access to drinking water, a toilet and electricity. They are not obliged to do so though: all of these are bonuses. Consider a garden as a bivouac spot; not a fully-fledged campsite.

Les jardins mis à disposition sont des coins d’herbe pour poser votre tente. Selon le choix des propriétaires, vous pourriez également avoir accès - ou non - à de l'eau potable, aux sanitaires et à l'électricité. Ils ne sont toutefois pas obligés de le faire : c’est un bonus. Considérez les jardins comme des zones de bivouacs ; il ne s’agit en aucun cas d’espaces de camping à part entière. -
