Travel Information

Transportation between Munich central train station (main station, Hauptbahnhof) and
Ringberg Castle will be provided by a conference bus on Sunday, April 26 and Friday, May 1.

On Sunday the bus "Autobus Oberbayern" will leave from the bus terminal in Arnulfstrasse
next to the central station at 5:00 pm (tentative)! For a detailed description, see map.
Please show up at the bus terminal in
time! A few of the organizers will be present.

On Friday the bus will leave Ringberg Castle after lunch at about 1:30 pm. (It will take
about 1 hour to reach the main station.)

Important information if you arrive by plane on Sunday, April 26:
You can choose from the following three possibilities to reach Munich main station.

Convenient solution 1:
Take the S-Bahn S1 to central main station. (Follow the green S-signs S in the airport.) It
takes about 45 minutes to reach Munich central railway station from the airport.
Buy your S-Bahn ticket in the hall just before going underground in at the ticket
counter or at the ticket machines next to the moving stairs. From the airport to the central
station we suggest to buy a full day pass for 10 Euro. The day pass might be useful in case
you arrive early and plan to look around in Munich before the bus transport.

Convenient solution 2:
Take the Lufthansa Airport Bus which will bring you right to the Munich central railway
station. Note that it takes about 45 minutes to reach Munich central railway station from
the airport.

If you arrive by train:
Easy, just go to the bus terminal from the train tracks.

What to do if you have missed the bus to Schloss Ringberg or will arrive after Sunday?
The departure time of the bus is firm and there will not be much waiting in case you are
late. In case you missed or cannot take the bus take the train BOB 957 on platforms 27-36
(Starnberger Flügelbahnhof, schedule) which leaves at 5:42 pm to Tegernsee
(and every hour) until 11:42 pm. Let the organizers know by phone to arrange for pick-up at
Tegernsee train station. Please have the information which train (time) you will take available 
when you call.

Only use the wagon that has the sign "Tegernsee" at the end of the train. The other wagons
are decoupled from the train at the stop "Schaftlach". You have to buy the tickes either at
the ticket machines on the platform next to the tracks or at the ticket office in the DB
Reisezentrum. The ticket needs to be devaluated before you enter the train.
