Road advice

From Antwerp or Hasselt (E313)
Take exit 23 Geel-West and follow the Geel ring road towards Kasterlee/Ten Aard. Continue via the old N19 through Ten Aard (do not take the N19g). On the Geelsebaan, just before the centre of Kasterlee, turn right at the first traffic lights towards Houtum.


From Antwerp (E34)
Take exit 24 Turnhout-Centre. Follow the old N19 towards Kasterlee (do not take the N19g). In the centre of Kasterlee, follow the signs to Houtum.


From Eindhoven (E34)
Take exit 25 Retie and follow the N123 towards Kasterlee. Via De Maneschijn, you will reach Houtum and then Camping Houtum.

Important: We recommend using the old N19 instead of the N19g (North-South connection) to reach the campsite as easily as possible.
