Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Diksmuide

The Drive from Charleroi to Diksmuide

The route covers 181 km (113 miles) and typically takes 1 h 56 m. You travel from Wallonia across Flanders to the western corner of Belgium, so most of the journey is on motorway before the last stretch on regional roads. Diksmuide is not a route we get asked for every day, but it is available on request like any other transfer. Heavy traffic around Brussels can add time, especially on weekday mornings and late afternoons. If you have a fixed appointment or a ferry, event or train to catch, build in a generous buffer.

About Diksmuide

Diksmuide is a small town in West Flanders, close to the IJzer (Yser) river and not far from the Belgian coast. It is known above all for its First World War history, as the area lay along the Yser front. The IJzertoren, a tall memorial tower with a museum, is the landmark most visitors associate with the town. Its large Grote Markt square is a pleasant place to stop for a coffee after the long journey. The surrounding countryside is flat and quiet, so many visitors come for battlefield sites, cycling and a slower pace.
