Teambuilding in the Ardennes: a turnkey day or stay in Durbuy

Looking to step outside the usual work environment and bring your team together? In the heart of the Belgian Ardennes, Durbuy offers the ideal setting for a teambuilding experience combining work, shared moments and time to unwind.

Located right in the centre of Durbuy, Le Sanglier des Ardennes makes it possible to create a fully tailored corporate day or stay: a meeting in a fully equipped room, a team activity, a gastronomic experience, an overnight stay at the hotel or a relaxing break. A flexible format that brings every part of your event together in one setting.

Why organise your team building in Durbuy?

A change of scenery can immediately bring a different dynamic to a corporate event. In Durbuy, that feeling starts as soon as you arrive.

The old town, the landscapes of the Ardennes and the many available activities offer plenty of opportunities to create a programme tailored to your team. And there is no need to constantly travel between locations: a meeting, lunch, an activity in the historic centre and dinner can easily be combined in a single day.

Durbuy is also easily accessible from the country’s main cities: Le Sanglier is approximately 45 minutes from Liège or Namur and 1 hour 15 minutes from Brussels.

Start the day with a work session

A teambuilding day does not necessarily have to begin with an activity. For a kick-off, team day or seminar, it can be a good opportunity to first bring your colleagues together around your projects and objectives.

The Business & Conference Center at Le Sanglier des Ardennes offers several fully equipped, flexible rooms suitable for both small meetings and events with larger groups. The Panamarenko, Magritte and Ensor rooms can accommodate up to 16, 20 and 60 people respectively. A 440 m² Business Room can also be divided into several separate spaces.

Team meeting, workshop, presentation or brainstorming session: the morning can be dedicated to work before moving on to a more informal part of the day.

Discover Durbuy differently with your team

Once the laptops are closed, it is time for team building.

One of the advantages of organising an event at Le Sanglier is being able to use Durbuy itself as your playground. A range of experiences allow you to discover the town and its surroundings while sharing a different kind of moment with colleagues.

The Durbuy City Game, for example, invites teams to explore the town through riddles and challenges. For a more relaxed experience focused on discovery and conviviality, various walks and activities also make it possible to explore the landscapes and flavours of Durbuy.

The aim does not necessarily have to be performance: the programme can first and foremost give colleagues the opportunity to spend time together outside their usual professional environment.

Gastronomy, tastings and convivial activities

For some teams, stronger connections are built around a shared experience at the table rather than through a sporting challenge.

Le Sanglier offers several activities centred around gastronomy and tasting: Blind Tasting Game, Wine Experience, cocktail or mocktail creation, sparkling wine tasting or a beer experience at Château de Durbuy.

Musical activities can also be added to the programme, including an interactive music quiz or a collective experience centred around music.

This variety makes it possible to create a teambuilding experience adapted to the participants, as well as to the season, group size and time available.

Extend your team building over a meal

A team event is also an opportunity to take the time to enjoy a good meal together.

The different dining options available on site make it easy to include lunch or dinner in the programme. Le Sanglier offers several restaurants and gastronomic concepts, allowing the meal to become a highlight of the day in its own right.

It is a simple way to continue conversations after the activity in a more informal setting.

Why not stay overnight in Durbuy?

To extend the experience, your team-building day can easily become a residential seminar in the heart of Durbuy.

After a day of meetings, activities and shared moments, your colleagues can stay directly at Le Sanglier des Ardennes and make the most of the evening without having to drive home.

The Business Stay package is available from €230 per person in a single room and from €140 per person in a double room, excluding tourist tax.

The stay can then be personalised according to your team’s needs, with various services available to add to your package: breakfast, access to a fully equipped meeting room, coffee breaks, lunch with sandwiches and drinks, and parking.

A flexible solution that brings accommodation, work sessions and convivial moments together in one place, while adapting the programme to your company.
