Arrival, Mobility and Accessibility

Travel to Salzburg 

Located in the heart of Europe, Salzburg is easily accessible by public transport. For your arrival and departure, we recommend – as far as possible – the greenest form of mobility for longer distances: the train. Salzburg is ideally connected to the whole of Europe by rail. Whether your journey starts in Europe or you enter the continent at an airport in a bigger city, the train will be not only the most sustainable but also the most stressless and comfortable way to travel to your destination. Other options include long-distance coaches (information e.g. on Flixbus, Omio and others). 

If your journey includes the Deutsche Bahn, there is a congress ticket with special conditions available. For booking, please follow the link:

Mobility in Salzburg 

Public transport is a key factor not only for travelling to Salzburg but also for getting around in Salzburg. With small streets, short distances, increasing traffic, shortage in parking space, etc. private transport by car is not a very attractive option in the inner city. Most of the places included in the congress, such as the venues, concert halls, most of the excursions, recommended accommodations and restaurants are situated within walking distance. For longer distances, we recommend the city buses. There is also a well-organized public transport network when you choose to discover the surroundings of Salzburg. Moreover, the best part: Public transportation in Salzburg is free for overnight guests with the Guest Mobility Ticket! 

The Guest Mobility Ticket will be provided at your accommodation. It is valid for the entire duration of your stay, granting access to the full public transport network within the Province of Salzburg. This includes urban transport, regional bus services, suburban railways, regional trains, long-distance trains, and micro-mobility services. For more information check:
