Back and forth through the Ammer Mountains

Back and forth through the Ammer Mountains

Cross-border bus connection Oberau – Reutte

From May 2024, the bus route from Oberau train station via Ettal and Linderhof past Plansee to Burgenwelt Ehrenberg and Reutte will be available again. This runs every hour on weekends and public holidays: the ideal way to visit the royal castles of Linderhof and Neuschwanstein without using the car, to leisurely walk around Lake Plansee or to go on a hike. The new line takes hikers from the border back to the Graswangtal or to the train station (bicycles are not possible).

The bus connection Line 9624 will be from May 2024 an Saturdays, Sundays and holidays circulate. It starts at Reutte train station and leads via Breitenwang to Plansee and further through the Graswangtal to Linderhof Castle and Ettal. Oberau train station is served in the morning and evening so that day visitors from the greater Munich area can travel to the heart of the Ammer Mountains in less than 2 hours. Arrivals and departures in Reutte are also perfectly aligned with the train timetable. The buses run between 8 a.m. and 19 p.m., so that longer mountain tours are also possible for locals and guests without their own car.

The financing is shared by the Garmisch-Partenkirchen district on the Bavarian side and the Reutte tourism association and the municipalities of Breitenwang and Reutte on the Tyrolean side. The new line will close a central gap in the regional bus network. Now locals and guests can go swimming at Lake Plansee or hike all over the Ammer Mountains with lines 73 and 9606 (Füssen - Garmisch-Partenkirchen), 9622 (Oberammergau - Linderhof), 9624 (Oberau - Reutte) and 100 ( Reutte - Füssen) drive home. 

For those responsible for tourism and local transport in the districts of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Oberallgäu and Weilheim-Schongau as well as the Reutte nature park region, the newly created line represents only the first building block in the implementation of the transport transition at the regional level.
