Arriving by train

We recommend to go to "Tegernsee" by train and then to continue to Ringberg Castle by taxi. The trains leave from Munich central station ("Hauptbahnhof") and are called BOB (for "Bayerische Oberlandesbahn"). The trains usually leave from platforms 33 or 34, see the map below. You can buy the tickets for the BOB trains at the BOB vending office close to those platforms. The timetable of the BOB can be found here (as you will see the train ride between Munich and Tegernsee takes about 1 hour). After arriving at the final stop "Tegernsee", please take a taxi to Ringberg Castle. If you do not see a taxi waiting at the train station, you could call Taxi Jasinski: Tel. +49 (0)8022 / 95 0 99.
