Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Forges

The drive from Zaventem to Forges

The route covers 129 km (81 miles) and typically takes 1 h 40 m. You leave the Brussels area first and then continue south through Hainaut, with the landscape getting quieter and greener as you go. Forges is not one of our most frequently booked destinations, but it is available on request like any other route.

Allow extra time if you travel at weekday rush hour around Brussels, or in heavy rain or winter weather. Your driver follows the traffic situation on the day, so a delay on the ring does not have to affect your plans at the destination.

Which vehicle suits your group

For smaller parties there are two taxi options: a Private Taxi for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers. Choose the larger one if you are travelling with four people or have a lot of luggage.

Larger groups, such as families, wedding parties or teams visiting the area, can book a private minibus. The options are:

• 8 seats (1-8 passengers)
• 16 seats (1-16 passengers)
• 24 seats (1-24 passengers)
• 32 seats (1-32 passengers)
• 40 seats (1-40 passengers)
• 48 seats (1-48 passengers)

Pick the size that covers your whole group, so everyone arrives together in one vehicle.

About Forges

Forges is a small village in the municipality of Chimay, in the province of Hainaut, close to the French border. The surrounding area is wooded countryside, and it is best known for the nearby Scourmont Abbey, where Chimay beer is brewed. It is a quiet place, so a direct private transfer is often the simplest way to get there from the airport.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The location is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so there is no need to search around the terminal.
