About waldbahn
Established in 1867, waldbahn is a privately-owned passenger rail company in Germany that has an impressive history of running lines. Although distinct from Deutsche Bahn, which runs most passenger train services in the country, waldbahn is part of the Länderbahn group.
Under a franchise agreement with Bavaria's regional transportation authority, waldbahn runs 4 routes, making 59 daily trips. Its services connect 14 stations across 4 cities in Bavaria and extend across the border into the Czech Republic, with some services terminating in Prague.
waldbahn's popularity among residents and visitors is due to its routes through the Bavarian Forest, with major destinations such as Plattling, Regen, and Zwiesel easily accessible on its trains. Zwiesel serves as the primary hub for interchanges on the Waldbahn network, with services running as frequently as hourly.
