Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Proven

The Drive from Charleroi to Proven

The route covers 169 km (106 miles) and typically takes 1 h 52 m. It leads from Wallonia across to the far west of Flanders, so a good part of the trip is on motorway. Allow extra time during the weekday morning and late afternoon rush, when the roads around Brussels and Ghent tend to slow down. Proven is not a frequently booked destination, but the transfer is available on request like any other route.

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight there and be on your way.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For small parties, a private taxi is available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers, which is a comfortable option for couples, families or colleagues with luggage. Groups that outgrow a car can book a private minibus. Minibuses come with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats, so a wedding party, a school trip or a pilgrimage group can travel together without splitting up. Choose the vehicle by the number of people and bags, and tell us about any extra luggage when you book.

About Proven and Where to Stay

Proven is a quiet village in West Flanders, in the municipality of Poperinge close to the French border. The surrounding countryside is flat farmland, well known for hop growing, and the area is popular with visitors exploring the Westhoek and its First World War sites. The village itself is small, so most accommodation is found in the nearby town of Poperinge, a few minutes away.

• Hotel Recour in Poperinge, a long-established hotel in the town centre.
• Hotel Amfora in Poperinge, located on the Grote Markt.
