1. Picnic site

A picnic site is a designated outdoor area where travellers or visitors can stop to eat and rest. It commonly provides picnic tables or benches and may also include parking, litter bins, toilets, shelters or other recreational facilities.

Picnic sites may be located at rest areas, parks, scenic viewpoints or tourist destinations and can be indicated by service, recreational or tourist signs. The symbols used vary between countries.

Is there currently a specific Belgian road sign for a picnic site?

No dedicated picnic-site sign is defined in the currently applicable Belgian Road Code. Picnic areas may instead be indicated by local, recreational or tourist signage.

When does Belgium introduce a dedicated picnic-site sign under the new Road Code?

The new Belgian Code of the Public Road is scheduled to take effect on 1 June 2027 and includes F76 for a picnic site. Until that commencement, the currently applicable 1975 Road Code remains the starting point for the traffic-sign system. Do not treat the future F76 as an already operative numbered sign.
