Quick Overview
East Flanders sits at the heart of northern Belgium, with the vibrant university city of Ghent as its centrepiece. RVingLife lists several dump stations in the province, with some offering free disposal. While the sanidump network here is still developing, the province's central location makes it a practical corridor for motorhome and campervan travellers moving between the coast, Brussels, and Antwerp.
Ghent combines medieval architecture with a lively student atmosphere and is increasingly popular with campervan visitors who appreciate its world-class dining scene and walkable historic centre. The surrounding countryside is classic Flemish flatland -- polders, canals, and cycling paths connecting quiet towns like Oudenaarde, Aalst, and Dendermonde. The Waasland region north of Ghent borders the Dutch province of Zeeland and offers a peaceful, uncrowded alternative to the busier Belgian coast.
For motorhome travellers, East Flanders works best as a base for exploring Ghent or as a transit stop between the E17 (Antwerp to Lille) and E40 (Brussels to Ostend) motorway corridors. Facilities in neighbouring provinces are close enough to supplement the local stellplatz and service point options.

Getting Around East Flanders by RV
The E40 motorway connects Brussels to Ghent and onward to Bruges and the coast, while the E17 runs from Antwerp south through Ghent toward Kortrijk and Lille. Both are toll-free and intersect at Ghent, making the city a natural motorhome hub. The N60 from Ghent to Oudenaarde and the N47 toward Dendermonde are reliable secondary routes.
Ghent's ring road (R4) handles traffic flow well, but central Ghent has an extensive car-free zone and a circulation plan that makes it difficult to navigate by motorhome. Park on the outskirts and use the excellent tram and bus network to reach the centre. Several Park and Ride locations around the R4 can accommodate larger vehicles.
