Parking Gentbrugse Meersen, Ghent

Parking Gentbrugse Meersen is mainly about planning for limited spaces around the park. Car parking is concentrated at Sporthal Driebeek, with only a smaller lot near Felix, so arriving with a backup plan can save you a lot of time.

Closest car parking: Sporthal Driebeek and the small Felix lot

The municipality lists a limited number of parking places at the sport facilities around Driebeek, plus a small parking area near Felix. From there, you’ll continue on foot to the main entrance area on Braemkasteelstraat. If these public options are full when you arrive, you can check Mobypark for any future availability nearby before you drive in.

Nearby street parking (Gentbrugge): follow the signs closely

Because the on-site lots are small, many drivers consider nearby streets as a backup. Don’t assume parking will be available or free: use only spaces that are clearly marked, and follow any rules shown on local signage (time limits, paid parking instructions, or permit restrictions where applicable). Also keep in mind that driving into Gent may require complying with the city’s low-emission zone rules, depending on your vehicle.

Campervan / larger vehicle parking: use the Driebeek camper area

If you’re coming with a motorhome or camper, look for the dedicated Kampeerautoterrein Driebeek (mentioned by Visit Gent). For larger vehicles, using a purpose-made area is typically more realistic than trying to fit into the smaller car parks.

When lots fill up: switch to paid parking or transit

If you find no space at Driebeek or Felix, don’t keep circling around the park. Move to a nearby paid garage or park-and-ride option in Gent and then continue on foot or by tram/bus. Before you set off, you can also check Mobypark for any future availability so you have an alternative plan if public parking is busy.
