So, how do I get there? – Your route to Renon/Ritten!

If you’re flying, the airports of Munich, Innsbruck, Verona, Bergamo and Malpensa are the best choices. Various bus services offer transfers to and from these airports. Airport Bolzano Dolomiti (ABD) is only about 20 km far from Renon.

Deutsche Bahn (German Railway), ÖBB (Austrian Federal Railways) and SBB (Swiss Federal Railways) all operate regular trains to Bolzano/Bozen; several bus services offer rides to and from South Tyrol on a regular basis.

From Bolzano up the Renon mountain
The most common destination in South Tyrol for travel operators is the regional capital Bolzano. Getting to the Renon mountain from there is a breeze thanks to local public transport:
The bus line 165 runs every hour on weekdays, every two hours on Sundays and public holidays, departing from the bus station in Bolzano. You can also hop on it directly at the train station. This bus goes via Unterinn/Auna di Sotto to Klobenstein/Collalbo, the principal village in Renon. From Collalbo, further bus routes run to the individual villages.

The Cable Car Renon will bring you up the Renon mountain to Oberbozen/Soprabolzano on a breathtaking ride suspended above the ground. It takes only 12 minutes, gondolas depart every 4 minutes. From Soprabolzano you can continue to Collalbo every 30 minutes on the narrow-gauge railway. The bottom terminal of the Cable Car Renon is conveniently located near the city center and only a 5-minute-walk from the train station.
