Every winter during work weekends at Athena, enthusiastic groups of members tinker, prune, clear leaves and "vandalize.
With no strings attached, they make sure that everything looks tiptop in their park.
Such a day or weekend working together outside and ending with a delicious meal often results in new friendships in addition to satisfaction.
And our great gratitude. Toppers!
Care to attend next time (again)? Fine!

A stone's throw from our park Le Perron are Les Hautes Fagnes. One of the most pristine areas of nature in the Ardennes and one of the last raised bogs in Europe.
If you pick a quiet time - at the crack of dawn or near dusk - you might encounterred deer, roe deer, wild boar, lynx or grouse.
Your backpack packed and ready for adventure?
The High Fens is a protected nature preserve that you can't just cross. There is, however, a large network of hiking trails. These run partly on asphalted roads and partly on wooden boardwalks that protect the peat.
These mapped walks vary in length and difficulty. So you can choose from short, easy, long and spicy. Something for everyone. Both experienced hikers who enjoy a challenge and families with small children will find their thing here. Do you like to make it a more educational hike? Then take one of the special learning trails.
Les Hautes Fagnes are divided into four zones
Zone A is free for hikers. In Zone B, you may only step on marked trails. For a trip through zone C, a guide must accompany you. Zone D is off limits. Do you encounter a red flag along the way? Then continuing along another path is the order of the day.

Hidden between the woods of Ossendrecht, near the border of Belgium, is naturist camping Athena. An oasis of peace, to which many regular guests have found their way for years. Brothers Stefan and Thomas grew up in the beautiful nature of camping Athena, including many camping guests around them. With pleasure they continue what their grandfather established sixty years ago. They love to tell about it.

In the evening cozy up by the stove.
