Warfaaz lake, a nature site for walks and activities

Not even 2 km from Spa, this wonderful corner of nature accessible all year round welcomes you for a wonderful day of relaxation with walks, a restaurant, playground, pedalos and fishing.

Warfaaz lake’s history began in 26 July 1882 when the town of Spa fell victim to a large flood caused by the overflowing water of the Wayai, a tributary stream of the Hoëgne River. To keep the situation from reoccurring, the town decided to build a dam that formed Warfaaz Lake. Construction took four years. Today, the site is a pretty corner of nature that offers a change of scenery with is rustic environment and well-designed facilities. Around the lake are many activities that will delight both kids and grown-ups.

Pleasure and relaxation

Surrounded by asphalt for easy access, the location is ideal for pretty walks or bike, scooter or buggy rides. Although swimming is not allowed, you can borrow pedalos on the lake (from April to October). Everyone will enjoy it! In the fishing period (don’t forget your permit!), the site is ideal to come, sit and try and catch salmon trout, pike, zander or a host of other varieties of fish. It’s true happiness for fishing enthusiasts… After this breath of fresh air, you might feel a bit peckish… Enjoy a delicious lunch at the brasserie by the lake and take advantage of its beautiful terrace with a view over the landscape… As for the kids, they’ll have loads of fun in the playground!
