Mountain Bus Service in Munich Introduces Upgrades from Whitsun Onwards - Mountain bus services in Munich initiate their operations from Pentecost, introducing advancements this season.
Here's some great news for the adventure lovers out there! Starting this Pentecost, the vibrant city of Munich's Mountain Bus service is all set to resume its operations, and this year, it's got a fresh batch of surprises! Not only will these buses hit the road on weekends, but they'll also be cruising on public holidays. Sounds enticing, right? Thanks to the Germany ticket, hikers and city dwellers can embark on an Alpine adventure without a hassle. No Germany ticket? No worries! You'll still be able to hop aboard, but the standard MVV ticket prices will apply.
As the curtain rises on the 2025 season, the Mountain Bus lines are equipped with a revamped schedule. The rolling extravaganza will commence from the Pentecost holidays and continue through the All Saints' weekend in early November. Needless to say, this season promises enhanced passenger information, making the journey seamless and enjoyable for every outdoor enthusiast.
So, where does the Mountain Bus take you? Witness the stunning landscapes of Pfronten in the Ostallgäu, Bayrischzell, and scenic Thiersee in Tyrol. Every line boasts two daily round trips, so pack your bags and get ready for the unparalleled beauty of the Alps! Fancy securing a seat ahead of time? You can book one for free using the MVV app!
The Mountain Bus lines officially joined the MVV family last year. Before that, the German Alpine Association launched a pilot project in 2021. The financial backing now comes from the city of Munich, the districts of Miesbach and Ostallgäu, and the Free State, covering the unfilled portion of the operating costs not covered by ticket sales.
In the last season, over 7,000 day-trippers used the Mountain Bus lines to explore the Alps. Popular pitstops included the Tegelberg cable car near Neuschwanstein Castle and the Gasthof Bächlalm in Bayrischzell, just a stone's throw away from the Austrian border. Grab your maps, buckle up, and let the adventure begin! Remember, the Mountain Bus is your ticket to nature's masterpiece!
The Mountain Bus, now part of the MVV family, operates with a revamped schedule as it resumes service this Pentecost, offering unrestricted Alpine exploration for adventure enthusiasts. By using the MVV app, outdoor-living lovers can book their seats to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Pfronten, Bayrischzell, and Thiersee, adapted to a lifestyle that cherishes home-and-garden bonding with nature. Employment policy is essential for the Mountain Bus's successful operation, funded via contributions from the city of Munich, the districts of Miesbach and Ostallgäu, and the Free State, ensuring the continued preservation of this community policy that facilitates outdoor living and supports sustainable employment.
