We hope to show you some places to exercise that you can incorporate into your weekly routine. Enjoy! 😎

# Top 1 - The Beach Park : 

Blaarmeersen Lake🏖️ is the perfect place for anyone who loves outdoor sports! You can go swimming🏊 in the big lake, play volleyball or football on the beach🏐, bring your frisbee, shoot some buckets on the basketball hoops🏀, hire a kayak or stand-up paddleboard or go for a nice long run around the beautiful lake🏄. But most importantly: The large gym area where you can find everything you need for a satisfying workout! When you're done with your workout, the restaurant overlooks the lake where you can relax and have a drink. 🍻

## Top 2 - Green Gras Park : 

There is not only one place to do gymnastics. After a hard workout, you can spend some time on the green meadow.🍀 Not only the meadow makes the park attractive, but also the football pitch and basketball court make the park a place for many young people to do different sports activities. The opportunity to do so many activities brings people together and is a wonderful way to make new friends and contacts. Therefore, there is a library where you can find the opportunity to read a book.📖 You'll also find a small café in the large park where you can go and get something to drink and relax. Positivity and happiness are pre-programmed. 🌞

### Top 3 - 2 Parks in 1 : 

This is a split park, which means it is divided into a larger and smaller part where you can do different exercises. You can exercise with a nice view next to the river, which gives the park a special flair. Next to the park is a high school🏫 with a basketball court where you can shoot some hoops after your workout🏀. The location has a huge advantage in that it is quite close to the city centre.

#### Top 4 - Parkourpark :

The Parkour Park is located close to the lake Blaarmeersen. It's right next to a large skate park where skaters and bikers are always practicing their tricks - so you'll have plenty to look at while you train 😉 The park has plenty of space for all kinds of activities. And you don't even have to bring your own water as there are a few free water dispensers around the area 🆓🚰 Even if it starts to rain, this place is perfect as there is also a covered area where you can find shelter.

##### Top 5 - Lonely Soul : 

A beautiful park just outside Gent with beautiful views in the countryside🌳. With all the training facilities, you can do all kinds of exercises. It's all very quiet here, perfect for people who like to work out in a relaxed atmosphere. There is also a large football pitch, so you can definitely bring your friends to play some football⚽. This park is also nice because it has more than enough places to park your car.🅿️ All in all, a nice park with everything you need, but a bit far from the city.
