Getting Around in Dresden
Flock 2018 edition
Getting around
Get the Deutsche Bahn app on Play Store, or the Transportr app on F-Droid (and select the Deutsche Bahn network in Germany). Trains (S1, S2) run every 30 minutes. Trams (numbered 1-13) / buses (numbered 60+) run every 10 minutes during day time, with reduced frequency during nights. The Transportr app finds the optimal connections and shows maps + walking directions.
