Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

1. Public transport to and from Munich

In case you would like to make use of the public transport system, the Seefeld-Hechendorf S-Bahn (rapid transit train) station is only 1.5 kilometres (approximately 1 mile) away from us. You will take the train line called S8, which runs from Herrsching via Munich central station to Grafing and vice versa. From our S-Bahn station, you can easily reach us by taxi, bus or on foot. Should you choose to walk, you just have to turn left outside the station entrance, after 200 m (approximately 200 yards) you turn left again and after 800 m (approximately 800 yards) you will reach a set of traffic lights, here you turn right towards Herrsching. The camp site is located on the right-hand side. If you want to go into Munich, it is sensible to use solely public transport. The S-Bahn trains run every 20 minutes, at certain times every 40 minutes to "Marienplatz", "Stachus" or Munich central station (Hauptbahnhof). The companies running the public transport system have a number of interesting offers available to suit your individual preferences. Information on prices can be obtained at the station. If you arrive by plane at Munich airport, you can take the S-Bahn to the camp site.

At Munich airport you can get directly to “Seefeld-Hechendorf” only 1,5 km next to the camping-site.

2. Oktoberfest

It is advisable for visitors to use solely public transport, because of the complete lack of parking places at this time and because of very strict enforcement of traffic regulations. The Oktoberfest can be easily reached by S-Bahn trains. You have to get off at "Hackerbrücke" station, a few stations away from Munich central station (Hauptbahnhof). "Hackerbrücke" station is on of the stations on the S8 train line. The Oktoberfest grounds are reached after a 10-minute walk. The sheer number of visitors will point you in the right direction. Please take note of the train times, since the S-Bahn trains stop running at a certain time at night until the early morning. Please make a reservation via e-mail during the period of Oktoberfest in any case. Otherwise we cannot guarantee for any available sites.
