Sports and leisure activities Antwerpen 6

Located 5 km east of the city center, this vast park is one of the city's green lungs. It features Rivierenhof castle, century-old trees, ponds, an arboretum, one of the finest rose gardens in the Benelux with 259 different species and 8,000 roses, a lake, a sports center, miniature golf, children's playground, open-air theater and art gallery. You can combine a walk with a visit to the Sterckshof silver museum.

If you want to get off the beaten track and away from the asphalt of Antwerp, head for the Boekenbergpark. If you can't pronounce it, no matter! The main thing is to reach it to finally appreciate the calm, the voluptuousness of the shade of the trees in summer. Don't forget your bathing suit and your towel because we come here especially to appreciate a magnificent and immense pool of emerald green water. In reality, a pond transformed into a natural eco-friendly pool where you don't pile up on top of each other in concrete. Ideal to relax.

The most beautiful andoldest swimming pool in Antwerp, built in pure Art Deco style in 1933, is well worth a visit and is reminiscent of the famous Molitor pool in Paris, built in the same style. It, too, features two floors of cabins surrounding a 33-meter competition pool with 5 lanes. But its appeal is not limited to its pool: it boasts an excellent spa with whirlpool, hammam, hot and cold baths, sauna, massage and treatment rooms. Everything for relaxation and well-being.
