Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Ernonheid

The Drive from BRU to Ernonheid

The route covers 127 km (79 miles) and usually takes about 1 h 21 m. You leave the Brussels area and head southeast across Belgium towards the province of Liège. The last stretch runs on smaller roads into the hilly countryside. Ernonheid is not a commonly requested destination, so this transfer is arranged on request, like any other route. Allow extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush around Brussels, or in winter, when rain, fog or snow can slow traffic on the Ardennes approach.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option. It comes in versions for up to 3 or up to 4 passengers, so choose the larger one if you have several suitcases. Groups of five or more can book a private minibus. Minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which covers anything from a family gathering to a coach-sized party. Count your luggage as well as your passengers, because bulky cases and sports equipment take up space.

About Ernonheid

Ernonheid is a small village in the municipality of Aywaille, in the province of Liège. It lies in the green, hilly surroundings of the Ourthe and Amblève valleys, in the Ardennes foothills. It suits travellers who want quiet countryside, walking and a base away from the big cities. Since it is a small place, it is worth keeping the exact address or a pin on the map handy, so your driver can take you right to the door.
