Getting to Leuven

From within the Benelux, the best way to get to leuven is by car or train. Be careful not to confuse Leuven (Louvain) with Louvain-la-neuve! The trains are run by NMBS, you can plan your trip on their website.

Getting around

While Leuven is quite small, and most places can be reached on foot, the Arenberg Campus lies just outside the city center.

There are two bus lines that stop at the campus. All buses leave from the train station. You can buy tickets from the driver (2 euro per trip), but if you buy your tickets at the station you pay a reduced price (1.20 euro per trip or 8 euro for a 10-trip ticket).

• Line 616. Leaves every 30 minutes. Goes directly from the train station to Heverlee (does not go through Leuven itself). Takes 15 minutes from the train station to the Arenberg Campus. Descend at the 'Celestijnenlaan' bus stop.
• Line 2. Leaves continuously (about every 7 minutes). Goes through the city center with various stops, indicated on the map. Takes 25 minutes from the train station to the Arenberg Campus. Descend at the end of the line.
• A map of all bus lines is available here
