Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Battice

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Battice

The transfer covers 114 km (71 miles) and typically takes 1 h 10 m. The route leads east from Zaventem across Belgium towards the province of Liège, mostly on motorway. Battice is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but the trip is available on request like any other. Allow extra time if you travel during the weekday morning or late-afternoon rush around Brussels, or if there are roadworks or poor weather on the way. Tell us about any tight connection when you book, so the pickup can be planned with some margin.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

A private taxi is the simplest option for individual travellers, couples and small families, with versions for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger groups can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. Plan around your luggage as well as your headcount. If you travel with several large suitcases, sports equipment or child seats, a vehicle one size up gives everyone more room on the 1 h 10 m ride.

Battice as a Destination

Battice is a village in the municipality of Herve, in the Liège province. It lies in the Pays de Herve, a rolling countryside of meadows and orchards that gave its name to Herve cheese. History-minded visitors know the area for the Fort de Battice, part of the Belgian defences that were attacked in May 1940. The setting is quiet and rural, and it is also close to the Dutch and German borders, so it works well as a base for exploring the eastern part of Belgium.

Where to Stay Near Battice

Battice is a small village, so for well-known hotels the nearest larger city is Liège. Two established names there are the Crowne Plaza Liège and the Radisson Blu Hotel Liège. Both are large, city-centre hotels that suit business travellers and visitors who want a wider choice of restaurants close by. Check the exact address and the onward route with your hotel before you travel.
