Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Septon

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Septon

The route covers 114 km (71 miles) and typically takes 1 h 21 m. You leave the Zaventem area, join the motorway network and continue south-east towards the Ardennes, where the roads become quieter and the landscape more wooded and hilly. Septon is a less frequently booked destination, but transfers are available on request just like on any other route.

Allow extra time during weekday rush hours around Brussels, when the ring road and approach roads can slow down. In winter, fog or snow in the Ardennes can also lengthen the last stretch, so build a little margin into your plans if you have a fixed appointment on arrival.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Couples and small families are well served by a private taxi, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. If you travel with a lot of luggage, the larger of the two is usually the more comfortable choice.

For bigger parties, private minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. They suit family gatherings, wedding guests, company groups and holiday parties heading to the Ardennes together, and everyone arrives in one vehicle instead of splitting up.

About Septon

Septon is a small village in the Durbuy area of the Belgian province of Luxembourg, surrounded by the countryside of the Ourthe region. It is a quiet base for walking, cycling and weekends away, with the better-known town of Durbuy close by. As a small place, it has few landmarks of its own, so it is worth having the exact address ready for your driver.

Where to Stay Near Septon

For accommodation, travellers usually look at the nearby town of Durbuy, which has a long tradition of hospitality. Well-established names there include:

• Le Sanglier des Ardennes, a hotel and restaurant in the centre of Durbuy
• Le Clos des Récollets, a hotel in Durbuy's old town

Check the exact location of your booking before travelling, as the final address may be in a village outside the town centre.
