Worth knowing

Weekdays: the train at 24 past, 54–55 minutes, calling only at three Brussels stations; the train at 57 past, 83 minutes, calling at every station from Denderleeuw. First 05:24, last 23:24 (a Bruges-bound train, 65 minutes). Weekends: the slow train only, hourly, 05:57–22:57, 81–83 minutes — same every day 3–18 October 2026.

Take the train at 24 past on a weekday. The one at 57 past also goes to Ghent, direct, and takes 83 minutes instead of 55.

At weekends only the 83-minute train runs, hourly, and the last one leaves at 22:57.

Gent-Sint-Pieters is south of the old town: De Lijn trams 1 and 3 from the station forecourt reach Kouter on an ordinary EUR 3.00 ticket.

Children under 12 travel free with you and pay no supplement.
