== Train == 1. Florenville has a train station (Brussels-Florenville takes 2 hours) (Take the Line Brussels-Luxembourg, change at Libramont, and take the small train to Florenville-Virton, there is only one every 2 hours) 1. There is also a possibility to go to Marbehan, which has a frequency of a train every hour, and ask for car pickking up in advance with your time of arrival. 1. There is also another possibility to go to the french station of Sedan (40km away), and ask for car pickking up a week in advance. == Road == 1. From Brussels: distance is 180 km, trip time of ~1h40,take the motorway E411, direction Arlon; at junction n°26, take direction Neufchâteau, and then Florenville. 1. From Luxembourg: take the motorway E411 (A4) direction Arlon; at junction n°29, get off and take the N87 direction Etalle; then use N83 over Tintigny to get to Florenville. 1. From Paris: distance is 284km, direction Reims - Charleville-Méizières - Sedan - Bouillon - Florenville == Plane == Florenville does not have an airport, the closest one is the one of Luxembourg. |

* longshots: Florenville-Arlon Longshot 36,5km (10 Apr 2003 18:45) - Longshot between Florenville (Waveguide 32slots placed on the church tower) and Arlon (Yagi of XavierVL). Distance 36,5km. Data transfert of 50ko/sec during 5 minutes but we didn't succeed to do the same after, we were quite disapointing... We think that the fresnel zone was not so good to realize a good link. Some pictures here. {{http://people.ffii.org/~zoobab/bh.udev.org/filez/tmp/longshot-90.jpg}} |
