Forestia is a magnificent wildlife park located in the heart of the forest near Spa, Belgium, 30 minutes from Liège. We highly recommend staying in one of the 5 lodges scattered among the animals, with 360° panoramic views of bears, polar foxes and wolves. Watch our on-site video for a glimpse.

We had the opportunity to stay at Lodge Harry for one night, and it was exceptional. What we liked best: breakfast with the wolves at the foot of the lodge, the cute polar foxes right next door, the upscale feel of the lodge and overall the excellent overall impression. Antoine gave us the tour. He's funny, professional and very involved in the visitors' well-being.

The price of a lodge reservation starts at around €281 per night for 2 people. This is an all-inclusive package, with everything included: overnight stay, 2 days' access to the park, breakfast delivered to your lodge, evening meal at the Forest'Bar and private parking.

Good to know: we always read customer reviews before selecting a venue. Those for Forestia are quite unique in Belgium. There are over 165 reviews on Google with a rating of 4.9/5. This can reassure you about the quality of the stay that awaits you here.

If you're staying overnight, you'll still need to check in at the Wood reception (the park hotel is a 2-minute drive away). Here's the address to enter into your GPS on the day of your arrival: rue du pied de la Fagne 10, 4910 Theux. However, if you're not sleeping, you can go straight to the park entrance.

Your room/lodge is accessible from 3pm, but you can come as soon as the park opens. You can then drop off your luggage and visit the park. Park opening times may vary according to the season, so check carefully to avoid any unpleasant surprises. And off you go for a day to remember.

Forestia is above all 300 animals in semi-liberty in the middle of the forest, 44 hectares and over 5 kilometers of parkways. The park is landscaped but still quite raw, and we love that. Species to discover: lynx (2 adorable sisters), black bears, American bison, Canadian wolves and polar foxes.

Of course, we took the time to explore the whole park. Take a look at our video of the polar foxes, for example. Here's a map of the park to help you find your way around.

Here are the 5 lodges:

1 - Lodge Simone - In the heart of the estate - Near the tarpan horses - Photo - 🐴
2 - Lodge Scott - In the heart of the estate - Near llamas and deer - Photo - 🦙
3 - Lodge Harry - End of the estate - Near the polar foxes - Photo - 🦊
4 - Lodge Barry - Near the entrance to the estate - Near the black bears - Photo - 🐻
5 - Lodge Mathilde - End of the estate - Near European wolves - Photo - 🐺

The lodges can accommodate from 2 to 6 people, but rest assured that everything has been designed with the number of guests in mind. Of the 5 lodges, 3 are especially recommended for couples: Simone, Scott and Harry. Couples account for half of all bookings at Forestia, and it's the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion.

Depending on the lodge you choose, you'll enjoy the following facilities: large bedroom with comfortable bed from Auping, terrace with deckchairs and view, flat-screen TV, bathroom with bath or shower, welcome products from Damana, microwave, fridge, sink, crockery, coffee machine, minibar, sitting area and dining table.

During our stay, we were surprised to discover that the lodges were luxuriously finished to a very high standard. It's something you don't necessarily see in the photos, but it's evident at every moment of our stay.

In the morning, breakfast is delivered directly to your lodge entrance. It's included in your reservation. On the menu: 100% organic juices from Cléoju, fruit, dairy products, pastries, rolls, hard-boiled eggs and cold cuts.

The "Wood" hotel has 6 rooms. Each room is named after one of the park's most emblematic animals, although you won't be able to see them from your window. You'll also have the great pleasure of observing them in the animal park. Prices start at just €135 per night.

In the evening, head to the park's restaurant, Forest'Bar, to round off the day in style. Delicious burgers on the menu. We recommend the beef tagliata, which is really very good.

PS: thanks to the wonderful blog Boussole Magique for the few photos above (of the animals) which we thought we'd share with you, and which really capture the atmosphere on site. The other photos are ours.
