BikeBUS

Inhaltsbild FahrradBUS Bad Schandau

Take a bike to discover idyllic landscapes and unique cultural heritage: in the Saxon Switzerland.  The VVO's bike bus is an easy option which makes it extremely convenient for you to get to the most beautiful places.


From 29 March to 2 November 2025
on the road with the FahrradBUS

The transport companies in the VVO area provide bike buses on certain routes. They offer a regular service on Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays, and some may be booked in advance.

With your bike in the trailer, the bus will take the strain off, getting you up steep hills and over long distances to where you want to start your cycle tour. The bike trailers have room for up to 16 bikes. Groups of more than 5 people should please contact the relevant transport company. This will make it easier to schedule the cycle loading.

The service is free. You simply pay the normal price for taking a cycle.
