Free bus travel

Overnight visitors in Oberstdorf with a valid visitor card, the Allgäu Walser Premium Card, can enjoy free bus travel on various lines in the local area. The public transport services provide a convenient and sustainable way to get to several starting points and destinations, such as cross-country skiing trails or the cable cars.

Which buses are included?

• Line 7: Oberstdorf-Fellhornbahn-Birgsau
• Line 44: Oberstdorf-Breitachklamm-Tiefenbach
• Line 45: Oberstdorf-Rubi-Reichenbach-Schöllang
• Line 9: Oberstdorf local bus
• Line 1: Oberstdorf to Walserschanze

Free bus travel ends at the Austrian border (Kleinwalsertal valley). As such, free bus travel on line 1 with your Allgäu Walser Premium Card applies as far as the Walserschanz stop, from where you will need a connecting ticket (subject to charge) if you wish to travel further into the Kleinwalsertal valley. Please activate this with the bus driver when you first board the bus.

How does free bus travel work?

To enjoy free bus travel on the lines indicated above, you must carry your Allgäu Walser Premium Card (Oberstdorf visitor card) with you. You cannot travel on the buses for free without an Allgäu Walser Premium Card. On boarding the bus, all passengers (including children) must tap the activated Allgäu Walser Premium Card on the reader. Free bus travel on the corresponding lines is only possible once the card has been read.

Give your car a break – park and ride

The P1 and Grüne Gasse car parks are the best places to leave your car if you are not staying in the centre of Oberstdorf. Buses run from all of the car parks to the bus station, railway station and numerous excursion destinations and starting points. Parking in the car parks is also free of charge with your Oberstdorf visitor card. For more information about car parks, please visit

Evening buses to the local districts

To enable you to take the bus from Oberstdorf to its local districts in the evening too, two evening lines operate to Schöllang and Tiefenbach. The evening buses run from the bus station via Rubi-Reichenbach to Schöllang and back again at 9 p.m. (line 45) and from the bus station via the Breitachbrücke bridge to Tiefenbach at 9.25 p.m. (line 44).
