For your convenience, we prepared a detailed description of the way to the Solingen Clinic.

From Düsseldorf Airport:

So, you arrived at the Düsseldorf international airport. What’s next? What is the comfortable and not expensive way to our Clinic? Are there any options?

By train

Düsseldorf International Airport has two railway stations. One of them is situated at the east end of the airport. Another station you can find directly under the terminal C. Connect your airline beforehand to get the information, whether your ticket includes the cost of transferring by train. Many airlines render this service.

Passengers go by a flying train (Schwebebahn) SkyTrain from the terminals to the station. The flying train runs every day since 3:45 to 0:45. In the night time the transportation is carried out by buses. The "Terminal" bus stop is located in the arrival zone (opposite to Exit E). Travel by a flying train is paid through the machines in site (at stations). Holders of the Rail&Fly-Tickets can travel free of charge. Access to the SkyTrain with a luggage carrier is, unfortunately, impossible. There is enough space for luggage in the train.

The electric train S1 goes from the station line 6, in the direction to Solingen Hbf (Solingen Huptbahnhof, main station) with an interval of 20 minutes. The travel time with the flying train including the transfer to is approx. 47 minutes.

The main station of Solingen is located in the Ohligs district. There is a stop for the public transport in the in close vicinity. Mind that electric buses run rarely in the night, and, as a rule, they start running regularly with an interval of 10 minutes (depending on the route) from 6 am.
