• Turn right at the fourth traffic lights (direction Campus Arenberg, this is the Celestijnenlaan).
• Drive on for about 500 m, until the bridge over the river Dijle. Just past the bridge, on the left, you can drive into the Arenberg park.

By train, taxi or bus

Please pay attention to the fact that you have to take first the train to Leuven and not to Louvain-la-neuve (Louvain-la-neuve is situated near Wavre and houses the French speaking equivalent of the Katholieke Universiteit).

In the station of Leuven you can board the local train which goes to Wavre and Louvain-la-Neuve. The first station is that of Heverlee. If you get out there it is a ten minute walk to ESAT.

At Leuven station, you can take a taxi (this will cost between 10 and 15 Euro and will take 5-10 minutes).
You can also take bus 2 "Heverlee Campus" in the direction "Kantien/Campus" (the bus stops on the Kantien square, 150m of our building).
Yet another alternative is to take the train from Leuven in the direction of Wavres/Louvain-la-Neuve!) till Heverlee train station (1 stop) and then walk to ESAT (see above).

At the "Kantien" you will see the park with the Arenberg Castle in front of you. Enter the park, the first building on your right hand side is the building of the Department of Electrical Engineering.

By plane

In the Brussels Airport (Zaventem), take the train to Leuven (about 16 minutes), not Louvain-la-Neuve! You'll find trains for Leuven by searching for: Leuven or Landen.

From Leuven station, proceed as mentioned in the adjoining column
