1 Rue du Cuisinier, 1420, Braine-l'Alleud
Been here?
A very quiet wild spot beside a chapel, with views of the Lion of Waterloo mound and surrounding fields. There are no conveniences or services, and walkers and joggers pass by, especially in the morning. Daytime traffic from farmers can be noticeable, while some Friday and Saturday evenings may be disturbed by young people. The access is suitable for vans but narrow for motorhomes, although the surrounding area is good for walking and cycling.

We spent two days here. It is quiet and nobody said anything to us.
Quiet little place, ideal for discovering the beautiful surroundings by bicycle.
I arrived in the middle of the night and access was easy. Walkers and joggers pass regularly, but they simply pass by. Since it is a field with a bench nearby, and the Lion's Mound and memorial are not far away, it is ideal for visiting. I ate outdoors; there is plenty to do.
The place is honestly not bad. I don't know if I was just unlucky, but there was a car constantly driving back and forth. It would stay for half an hour, leave, then come back an hour later, and so on. It clearly prevented me from sleeping, so I returned to my old spot in the kindergarten parking area.
We had a wonderfully quiet night on Sunday evening. Completely silent! No noisy youths or early-rising farmers. No police.
Nice spot, but lots of traffic during the day. The farmers start early, from 6 a.m. A nice little walk for dogs around the fields, starting at the small chapel under the tree.
Beautiful place and quiet at night. You should arrive late because the farmers are very active there; also bear this in mind when parking. Occasional walkers, otherwise hardly anyone comes there. Access roads are somewhat uneven, but no problem even for large vehicles.
Very nice place. Young people come to spend Friday and Saturday evenings here. Don't expect to go to bed early! Lots of walkers passing in the morning and evening, but they are not disruptive.
Very good spot for a van. Motorhomes: it is narrow. Quiet, with a few dog walkers in the evening. Perfect for one night, for example before heading to Brussels.
Beautiful location! At about 4 at night, a car stopped by playing loud music, but it left again soon. Woke up with birds and sunshine!
Perfectly quiet place with only a bin. A 360-degree landscape under the stars. The track has a few potholes, and puddles form when it rains, but none of this affects the parking area.
Super location. Very quiet in the evening. Many walkers and cyclists during the day, but they were not disturbing.
A very quiet place to spend the night near Brussels. If coming from the south, be careful on the first uphill section in the rain, as it can be slippery.
Lovely little place with few other campers for an overnight stay. Also suitable for camping, despite the small amount of grass. Few cars pass by, and some dog walkers, who are friendly and quiet. Highly recommended!
The road is not suitable if you have a motorhome. We managed it with a converted van, but the place to stop... well, in our opinion it is not worth it.
Narrow and chaotic access road, but manageable! Flat, quiet place. Only a few dog or horse walkers in the evening. One bin as the only amenity.
Lovely spot for a night, nice walk into the quaint village down the road to see the tall round building you can see from the park up. Bumpy track to get in but was easy to manage in our relay van. Bin under the trees. If you head passed the first park up spot there are more up the road and around the left after the road turns to tarmac. Few runners and cyclist all friendly! Leave no trace!!
Great spot to stay the night. The road going in is a little bumpy and narrow but we made it fine in our ford transit 6m. Beautiful sunset. A few people around walking dogs in the morning and evening but overall great spot.
