You will be lodging in the middle of Flanders Fields, on the famous Menin Road, with a host who will be delighted to give you a historical explanation of World War I. He outlines a road map along well known and lesser known sites, so you can discover the Silent Testimonies of the Great War on your own. Furthermore, tickets for the Museum Passchendaele 1917 and the Hooge Crater Museum are available from us at reduced prices.
You can enjoy your stay to the full also if you are athletically inclined: Cycle along the renewed cycling network or "wander through the woods with Jaek and Nink" for the kids. If you would rather don your walking shoes, there are various sign-posted walks in and around Zonnebeke.
