| Freiburg im Breisgau | Zurich to Freiburg by train? Posted: Thu February 23, 2006 05:38 AM UTC
We want to go from Zurich to Freiburg on a Saturday, by train, then return on a weekday. Any advice on how to do this inexpensively? Would consider a bus.
Many Thanks |

There is no real possibility to do it "inexpensively" except walking. Considering a bus is not a possibilit either for the lack of buses (a bus is a local, short distance travel mode in Germany and Switzerland, nothing that connects bigger cities). You can save some money by taking a local train (RE, RB) from Freiburg to Basel SBB, but within Switzerland there are no different prices for different trains. If you have some more time and if you are several people you can buy a Baden-Württemberg-Ticket for 24 EUR (valid for up to 5 persons on local trains) and go to Basel Bad. Bf (one stop before SBB station), take a local train from there to Schaffhausen and then a train from there to Zürich. You can use the BaWü-Ticket till Schaffhausen, from there you will have to buy a Swiss ticket. The other way round (Zürich to Freiburg) is the same. For the prices in Swiss part of your journey go to www.sbb.ch, for the German part www.bahn.de.

The train fare varies between E29.20 and E39.00, if you go into the German Rail website , Deutsche Bahn, click on international guests, and type in from Zurich hbf to Freiburg hbf, you will get an idea of the times and the fares, some trains are direct and some involve up to 2 changes.
