HOW TO TRAVEL TO SCHAERDING

Schaerding is a small famous baroque town in the north of Austria
(Upper Austria / Oberoesterreich). It is located at the river Inn
about 20 km south of the town Passau where the Inn goes into the
river Danube (Donau). 

Please note that "Schaerding" is not the exact spelling. The "ae"
has to be replaced by the German "Umlaut a" which is an "a" with two dots
above the "a".

Airports next to Schaerding are Munich, Salzburg, and Linz. Also Vienna
can be taken. 

From Munich go trains about every two hours to Passau. There are
a few trains from Passau to Schaerding departing in Passau at
the following times: 9.40, 12.49, 14.51, 15.22, 15.44, 17.53, and 20.39.
If you want to go from Passau to Schaerding later than 20.39 hrs
