Chimay

Does anyone have any recommendations on Chimay, we know how to get there and what its supposedly like, I've even drank the beer already, but can you camp in the paddock ? is it advisable? there doesnt seem to be much there in the way of hotels, B&B's or restaurants, is this the case ? or it the place just not online yet ?

I'll see some marshals, who have been at Chimay, this weekend at Zolder. I'll ask them.
Haven't been there myself for ages, but I do not think they have a website. They hardly have a decent track
I'll do some searching and let you know if and what I find.

Thanks Eddy, I've been scouring the Internet, found a few places and had no reply, the larger sites come up with places 30 miles away or more unfortunately . .

I'm thinking about the possibility of hiring a camper

Zefarelli,
there is a campsite at Chimay, seems to be on the inside of the first corner. Even with water and electricity.
Hotels are going to be difficult, not that many near the village.

What's most correct meaning of Frontieres in Grand Prix des Frontieres name? I need this to translate the name to Russian in most correct way.
