Our UEX trains to Lörrach depart from Hamburg on Friday evenings on many weekends, making them ideal for changing accommodation in the holiday regions of Switzerland and France. simultaneously we offer our many guests from Switzerland and Baden-Württemberg a weekend journey north to Sylt, Rügen or Scandinavia. The car train to the district town of Lörrach is one of our classic car train connections. Located close to the border not far from Basel, Lörrach is a popular stopover for holidays in France and Switzerland. The connection to Lörrach is also popular with motorcyclists who want to enjoy riding fun in the mountains without first having to cover 800 kilometres on the motorway in wind and weather. But the pretty little town is by no means just a stopover, as there is a lot to discover in Lörrach: an art trail through the town centre leads you to an exciting mix of fountains and sculptures by renowned artists and in the Open Bridge under Lörrach’s motorway bridge you can admire graffiti and street art in large format. Rötteln Castle, one of the largest castle ruins in southern Baden, towers high above Lörrach.
