Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Hingeon (Fernelmont)

The drive from CRL to Hingeon

The route covers 44 km (27 miles) and typically takes about 29 minutes. It runs from the airport through the Walloon countryside towards the province of Namur. Allow some extra time if you travel at weekday rush hour or in bad winter weather, since traffic around the Charleroi and Namur areas can slow things down. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at the Starbucks inside the airport, holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

Choosing the right vehicle

For small parties, a private taxi seats 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, which suits couples, families and business travellers with normal luggage. If you are travelling with a bigger group, minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, so a wedding party, a sports team or a company outing can be matched to the right size. When you book, mention any bulky items such as strollers, sports gear or extra suitcases so the driver can plan the space.

About Hingeon (Fernelmont)

Hingeon is a village in the municipality of Fernelmont, in the province of Namur in Wallonia. The surroundings are rural, with farmland and quiet roads, so most visitors come to see family, attend an event or stay somewhere calmer than the city. Having an exact street address ready helps the driver, as house numbers in small villages can be hard to spot.

Where to stay nearby

Hingeon itself is a small place, so I can't name well-known hotels there with confidence. The nearest larger town is Namur, a short drive away, where established options include the Château de Namur, a hotel in the Citadel area, and Les Tanneurs de Namur, a boutique hotel close to the old town centre. If your stay is in Hingeon or Fernelmont, give the driver your exact address so you can be dropped at the door.
