By rail
Rail travel is often the most predictable option for teams and individual visitors.
– From Papenburg (Ems): quick taxi ride to the facility; good for local arrivals.
– From Leer: more service options, but typically requires a transfer.
Tips:
– Check train and taxi timetables together so you don’t face long waits.
– Pre-book vehicles if you travel with equipment or several passengers.
– Allow contingency time for platform changes or delays, especially during events.
– For group visits, a shared shuttle can cut costs and simplify arrivals.
By air
Bremen (BRE) and Münster/Osnabrück (FMO) are the most practical gateways.
– Typical routing: flight → rental car or train → short road transfer to ATP.
Practical steps:
– Pre-book taxis or car rental to remove uncertainty after arrival.
– Keep the site address saved offline and share arrival times with your host.
– Prepare any access paperwork, ID and charging cables the day before travel.
Driving and vehicle considerations
– If you’re driving team vans or trailers, confirm vehicle size limits and any site restrictions ahead of time.
– Carry a reliable GPS and download offline maps; keep paper directions as a backup in low‑signal areas.
– Specify vehicle dimensions and weight when booking transfers so providers can supply suitable vehicles.
