Tegernsee Bus Fare

Posted by (NY) on

I am considering a day trip from Munich to Tegernsee and then on to the Wallbergbahn Cable Car. I see the Bayern Ticket will cover the cost of the train, then I must transfer to bus 9556 for a short ride to the c cable car station. This does not appear to be covered on the Bayern pass according to the DB website. Does anyone know how/where to buy a ticket for the bus? I only have a few minutes to make the transfer.

The Wallberg website says the bus ride is free if you have a Tegernsee Guest Card (which I assume is given to those who stay in the area) but it doesn't list the bus fare for others.

The Bayern ticket will cover your bus in Tegernsee on the 9556 (at least it did when I was there in September and every other year I've been there).

If for some reason it doesn't work (which it should), you just buy the ticket from the driver when you board.

Edit:

  • The DB websites says it is good for all means of transport incld buses (alle Verkehrsmittel im Verbund (S-, U-, Straßenbahn, Bus) )
  • Most RVO buses are covered by a Bayernticket. The exception list can be found here
  • Alternatively you could get a BOB-MVV combo ticket and just pay for the bus separately, Check out which is cheaper.

I've ridden on many RVO buses in that area, but not on RVO 9556. All have been covered by the Bayern-Ticket.

The RVO (Regionalverkehr Oberbayern) is a subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn.

From the Beförderungsbedienung (conditions of service) of the RVO,

6.5.1 Bayern-Tickets
In den Bussen der RVO GmbH werden folgende Tickets anerkannt
 Bayern-Ticket
 Bayern-Ticket Nacht
 Bayern-Böhmen Ticket

Auf bestimmten Strecken ist eine Maut zu bezahlen. Bei ausländischen Strecken gilt das Bayern-Ticket
bis zur letzten deutschen Haltestelle (Ausnahme: Salzburg Hbf.).

Bayern-Tickets werden auch in den Bussen der RVO GmbH verkauft, hier gilt der Preis für den Automatenverkauf.

Bayern-Böhmen-Tickets werden in den Bussen analog zu den Bayern-Tickets anerkannt, jedoch nicht verkauft.

Das Bayern-Ticket und das Bayern-Böhmen-Ticket werden auf folgenden Strecken nicht anerkannt:
 Linie 847 ALM-ERLEBNIS-BUS
 Linie 849 Kehlstein Busabfahrt – Kehlstein Parkplatz
(The translation is left to the reader as an exercise.)

But, basically, the first three items are accepted on the RVO, including a Bayern-Ticket. The two lines listed at the end are not included in the Bayern-Ticket, including the special buses (849) that go up the closed road to the Eagles Nest.
The Bayern-Ticket is not accepted for portions of lines that go outside Germany (see Liniennetz), particularly on the part of the Watzmann Express, RVO 840, from Salzburg to Marktschellenberg. The out-of-Germany portion of the line between Füssen and Reutte, Austria, also does not accept the Bayern-Ticket.

You could also use the Bayern-Ticket on RVO 9550 to Walbergbahn, which parallels 9556, but you might have to tell the driver you weren't going on to the portion of that line that goes into Austria.

By the way, Google maps shows the distance between Tegernsee Bhf and the Wallbergbahn to be between 6 and 7 km, depending on the route. The RVO website gives the adult fare as 2,90€ for 4-6 km and 3,40€ for 7-10 km, but what's 6-7 km?
