Vienna is just a train ride away
The EGU is pleased to support the initiative of Swiss colleagues to reduce the carbon footprint of your travel to the EGU General Assembly 2019. Why not consider going to Vienna by train?
Take the train from Zurich to Vienna and SBB offers you a CHF25 discount. There are two ways to reach your destination. You could either take the ÖBB Nightjet and arrive well rested in the morning or the ÖBB Railjet which takes you to Vienna smoothly during the day while you are preparing yourself for the assembly.
