how to get to Bastogne?

I've having a hard time finding a rail schedule to Bastogne. I plan to take the Eurostar from Paris to Brussels. Then train from Brussels to Bastogne, but can't fin it anywhere. Can anyone help?

I've also read that you have to take a bus. When can I get those bus schedules?

The nearest station is Libramont (50 min from Luxembourg, 1h from Namur, 2h from Brussels). From there, take bus 163b to Bastogne (45 min). Be aware that buses only leave every two hours.

You should check for up-to-date information - I have this in my notes, but from a trip a couple of years ago.

I saw that too but don't know how to check the bus from Libramont. Where can I get up-to-date info and bus schedules?

We enquired about this and were told that car or guided tour is the only convenient way to do it. Not a problem since we were already considering a road trip.

This is the bus company that services Bastogne - Libramont.

There is an English option just in case the link doesn't take you directly there. Good luck!
