fichtelBAXI

As EFFECTIVE as by bus and as convenient as by cab

We even go as far as “Undawoldaschgräi”

The fichtelBAXI is the demand-responsive mobility service in the district of Wunsiedel i. Fichtelgebirge – it only runs when it is needed. The journey can be booked conveniently by phone or app.

It runs according to a timetable, but always takes the fastest route between the start and destination and only stops at the stops that have been booked. This makes mobility services more flexible and ecological.

Our fichtelBAXI also connects very small towns to the public transport network and, thanks to journeys at off-peak and weekend times in combination with the classic bus service, creates an attractive offer for everyone!
