The bus connection Line 9624 (from 1.1.2026 line 319) will be from May 2025 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 district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen on the Bavarian side and the Reutte Tourism Association, the municipalities of Breitenwang and Reutte on the Tyrolean side. The new route closes a key gap in the regional bus network. Now, locals and visitors can travel to Plansee for swimming or hike throughout the Ammer Mountains and return home using routes 73 or 9606 (Füssen - Garmisch-Partenkirchen), 9622 (Oberammergau - Linderhof), 9624 (from January 1, 2026, 319) (Oberau - Reutte), and 100 (Reutte - Füssen).
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.
