Travel information

Arriving by plane

Take the Shuttlebus from Linz Airport to the main station (the bus-stop is called Kärntnerstrasse - Hauptbahnhof). The buses go every full hour and the ride takes about 20 minutes (this will cost € 2,40). Then please follow the directions as described in "Arriving by train".

As an alternative you can take a taxi from the airport directly to Johannes Kepler University, Altenberger Straße 69 - ask to be dropped off at the "Hochschulfondgebäude".

Arriving by train

At the main station take the tram number 1 or 2 in the direction of the University (it says "Universität" on the train). Leave the tram at the "Universität"-station and then cross the "Altenberger Straße", turn right and walk along the hedge for about 150m to where you can enter the University campus.

The ride on the tram will have taken you about 25 minutes. There are ticket machines at every tram station. The ticket called "MAXI" is valid for one day, the ticket called "MIDI" is valid for a single ride.

Arriving by car

  • Coming from Salzburg or Vienna:
    Take the motorway A1 to Linz. Leave the A1 at Linz and continue on the A7 to Prague. After you have crossed the river Danube you should leave the motorway at the exit called "Dornach". Go straight over the crossing at the traffic lights (now entering "Altenberger Straße") and follow the road until you see the University of Linz on your left.
  • Coming from Prague:
    Follow the motorway A7 to Linz. Leave the motorway at the exit called "Dornach". Go straight over the crossing at the traffic lights (now entering "Altenberger Straße") and follow the road until you see the University of Linz on your left.

You can use the University's car park (there is a parking fee though). Take a ticket at the gate and pay at the turquoise coloured ticket machines just before you leave again.

If you are making a delivery you can enter the University campus at the other gate and go directly to the "Hochschulfondgebäude".

At the Johannes Kepler University of Linz:

If you are coming from the Altenberger Straße, follow the alley until you see the library in front of you ("Bibliothek"). Turn left just before you reach the library, taking either the stairs or, by car, the narrow road down to the pond. Follow the pond until it ends and then continue in the same direction until you reach the "Hochschulfondgebäude".

The Competence Network KI-I is on the first floor of the Hochschulfondgebäude (new window).
