Mobility in Berchtesgaden
As an overnight guest, you’ll receive a Guest Card. With it, you can explore the region around Berchtesgaden, Bischofswiesen, Marktschellenberg, Ramsau, and Schönau a. Königssee conveniently and for free by bus. In addition, you can use the entire bus network of Regionalverkehr Oberbayern (RVO) for free — with a few exceptions: the Kehlstein line, the ALMErlebnisBUS, and trips to Rossfeld (toll). For trips to Salzburg, you pay a surcharge for a round trip: 7 Euro for adults and 3.50 Euro for children up to 14 years old.

It’s very easy: The Deutschlandticket is also valid on regional buses—subject to the exceptions listed above.

With the Berchtesgaden Guest Card, you can also ride the trains of the Bayerische Regiobahn for free from Berchtesgaden or Bischofswiesen via Bad Reichenhall all the way to Salzburg.

ALMErlebnisBUS

Start your ride on the ALMErlebnisBUS–the alpine pasture adventure bus–at the Klausbachhaus near Hintersee in the mountaineering village of Ramsau. Rolling past a string of alpine huts in the Klausbach Valley, you follow a historic salt trading route all the way to the Hirschbichl border crossing—and on to Weißbach near Lofer in Salzburg’s Saalachtal valley.
