My group of 4 will be ending our Rick Steves tour in Lake Bled, Slovenia on May 24th and have tickets to the Oberammergau Passion Play in Germany on the 26th. Does anyone know the a good way to Oberammergau? We plan on leaving from Ljubljana.

There is a direct train to Munich from Lesce-Bled at 10:03 am on May 24 and May 25, arriving at Munich Hbf at 3:41 pm. From there you can get a train to Oberammergau.
You can buy nonrefundable Sparpreis tickets now at www.bahn.com. Prices are quite a bit cheaper on the 25th than the 24th. Just put in 4 adults traveling from Lesce-Bled to Oberammergau.

It is a long journey to make in one day, but you don't have to do that.
You have have two nights to play with between the 24th and the 26th. You could spend the 24th in Ljubljana or Bled, and travel on the 25th to Munich, with the leg to Oberammergau on the 26th, unless the play starts early. In that case, you should depart Slovenia on the 24th and go partway, with an overnight either in Munich or a small village on the way. Then continue the journey to Oberammergau on the 25th and overnight there, or nearby.
