What is the best way to get from Fussen to Bacharach? Train and driving options would be appreciated. Thanks!
If you buy your tickets well in advance, you may find some of the 29€ (49€ for two) tickets available for Füssen-Bacharach. If you have lots of time, up to 5 people can travel this route on Saturday or Sunday with a "Happy Weekend" Ticket, a group daypass for regional trains throughout the country that costs 39€/day. The regional trains stop everywhere and will require about 9 hours of your time. But that's the cheapest way to go for 2 or more travelers. The 4-hr. car trip will cost you 40€ just for gas and doesn't include pick-up or drop-off time or traffic slow-downs.
Thanks James. I'll take the car route. The extra sightseeing time is worth the extra Euros.
