Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Groot-Loon

The Drive from Charleroi to Groot-Loon

The route covers 94 km (59 miles) and normally takes around 1 h 12 m. You travel from the Walloon side of the country into Belgian Limburg, so the trip crosses the language border and passes several busy motorway stretches. Allow extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours, especially around Brussels and Leuven, or in bad weather. Because this is a less frequently booked route, it is arranged on request, so it helps to book ahead and give your arrival details in advance.

Which Vehicle Fits Your Group

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice. There is a version for 1-3 passengers and one for 1-4 passengers, which gives you a little more room for luggage. If your party is bigger, minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. They suit groups such as wedding guests, sports teams, company delegations or coach-style tours. Choose the size that matches your headcount plus the luggage you expect to bring, and the driver will take you directly to your address.

About Groot-Loon as a Destination

Groot-Loon is in the province of Limburg, in the quiet, rural Haspengouw area, which is known for its orchards and gently rolling farmland. It is a good base for walking and cycling, and for visiting nearby historic towns. Expect a calm, small-town atmosphere rather than a big-city setting. Since the area is spread out, a private transfer to your exact door is much easier than relying on local connections.

Meeting Point

After you have collected your luggage, head to Starbucks in the airport, which is easy to find. Your driver will be waiting there with a personalised name sign, ready to take you to Groot-Loon.
