Discover the Stuttgart Region

Public transport (ÖPNV)

Discovering the Stuttgart Region: Esslingen is attractive and therefore always a worthwhile destination. Travelling in a sustainable way is recommended during an excursion to the former free imperial city.  A direct connection to the S-Bahn (urban train) network makes the city accessible from Stuttgart in just a few minutes. The many bus connections are also a real alternative to the car. The city's public transportation system will take you almost anywhere by bus. Unique for the region: A ride with the innovative Esslingen trolley bus.
