Castle Park of Enghien (Parc d'Enghien)

The Parc d'Enghien in Enghien is one of the oldest laid-out parks in Belgium, with roots in the seventeenth century when it was owned by the Arenberg family. The walled park of 182 hectares combines French garden architecture, English landscape gardens, ponds, and woods. Highlights include the Chinese pavilion, the rose garden, the Heptagon, and an old observatory.

Accessibility is partial. The central main avenues are wide and largely paved, with a firm gravel surface suitable for wheelchairs, especially in dry weather. The formal gardens around the Chinese pavilion are well accessible. Some smaller side paths and parts of the forest have soft ground or tree roots and are therefore more difficult. Adapted toilets can be found at the reception building at the entrance.

Disabled parking spaces are available at the main entrance. The park has an admission fee, but persons with a disability and their companion receive a discount. In the nearby centre of Enghien there is also the Capuchin monastery with visitor centre. Dogs on the lead are permitted in designated zones.
