Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Moresnet

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Moresnet

Moresnet lies 126 km (79 miles) from Charleroi Airport Brussels South, and the drive normally takes about 1 h 24 m. The route crosses Wallonia from west to east towards the Liège region and the German and Dutch borders. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other, and your driver will plan it in advance. Heavy traffic around Liège at rush hour, roadworks or bad winter weather can lengthen the trip. If you have a fixed appointment or a connecting journey, allow a little extra time.

Choosing the right vehicle

Two taxi options are available: a Private Taxi for 1-3 passengers and a Private Taxi for 1-4 passengers. Both suit couples, families and business travellers with standard luggage. For a party with more bags, or a group that wants extra space, there are Private Minibuses with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Choose the size that matches your passenger count and the amount of luggage you are bringing. Give the exact number of travellers when you book so the right vehicle is assigned.

Moresnet as a destination

Moresnet is a small village in the province of Liège, part of the municipality of Plombières, close to the point where Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands meet. The surrounding landscape is green and hilly, with farmland and woods. The area is known for the Moresnet railway viaduct and for the history of Neutral Moresnet, a tiny territory that once lay between Belgium and Prussia. The German city of Aachen is only a short drive away, so the village is a practical base for visiting both sides of the border.
