Playground Map: Discover Which Play Structures Sit on Your Favourite Camping Field
Planning a family camping trip gets easier when you can see—at a glance—where the fun is. Our Playground Map helps you preview which play structures sit on each camping field at Camping de Wildhoeve, so you can choose a pitch that keeps little explorers happily within sight. In this guide, you'll learn how to use the Playground Map, what to consider when picking a pitch, and how on-site family facilities—from pools to a brand-new indoor playground—round out the experience.
What is the Playground Map?
The Playground Map is a simple way to view which play equipment is placed on the different camping fields. Because each field features its own set of play options, the map helps families match a preferred pitch with the kind of on-field fun they value most.
- Where to find it: Open the campsite map (Plattegrond) and look up your preferred field to see its play equipment. You can also find this information via the Playgrounds info in Facilities and the relevant FAQ.
- Why it matters: Choosing a pitch near the right play options can make your stay smoother—kids stay engaged, and you enjoy more relaxed time at the tent, caravan, camper, or one of our rental accommodations.
How to Use the Playground Map to Choose Your Pitch
Follow these steps to quickly turn the Playground Map into a better family layout on arrival:
Shortlist your camping fields
- Use the map to identify the fields that appeal to you based on location within the campsite and the presence of on-field play equipment.
Match with your family’s priorities
- Prefer frequent play breaks? Choose a field with play equipment right on the grass where you plan to stay.
- Want a calmer setup? Pick a field with play options nearby but not directly adjacent.
Consider your daily rhythms
- Morning energy vs. evening wind-down: Select fields accordingly to balance playtime and quiet time.
Cross-check essential comforts
- All comfort pitches include an individual water tap and drain, CAI television connection, 8-amp electricity, and campsite-wide WiFi. Factor these into how you set up and supervise play.
Book with confidence
- Once you’ve identified the field that best fits your family, proceed via Zoek & Boek or contact reception for assistance.
