Air transportation

In our 1989 Galactic Hacker Party announcement we joked about people being 'caught behind enemy lines' because their laptops were being mistaken for bombs. Little did we know... But if you do intend to get airlifted (possibly because of large bodies of water between you and WTH), the following airports are within range:

Schiphol Amsterdam Airport (AMS) 

By train, trainstation is below the main hall. Take the train in the direction Amersfoort, change trains in Duivendrecht in the direction Utrecht. Change trains again in 's Hertogenbosch / Den Bosch in the direction Eindhoven. Journey time: 1.41 hours. This service runs every 30 minutes from 5.51 until 22.51, and there is a slightly different service at 23.40 and 4.00.

Rotterdam Airport (RTM) 

RET Bus 33 to Rotterdam Centraal and from there continue your journey by train (train part takes 1.23 - 1.45 hours)

Eindhoven Airport (EIN) 

Hermes bus 401 (monday till friday,saturday,sunday) to station Eindhoven and from there continue your journey by train

Zaventem Brussel Airport (BRU) 

Is equiped with a trainstation see brussels-bru.com

Maastricht Aachen Airport (MST)

Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) 

By train to Düsseldorf Hbf (main train station), then to Venlo, then to Eindhoven, and from there to Boxtel. Total journey time is 2.5 hours, and it costs €19.90.

From each of these airports you can continue your journey by train.

If you arrive via plane, please read the Customs page.

Legacy railroad

The ecological choice! Boxtel is the nearest train station. Once you get there, our shuttle service will get you to the field, and back to the station when you wish to go home. The Train page has the gory details. No HackTrain this time :-(

The Transport-Team will be present at the Boxtel train station:

22-7 till 26-7 11:00,13:00,15:00,17:00,19:00 and 21:00 The ride will leave 20 minutes later.

GPS

And of course you can always use your GPS on how to get to the site (just make sure you don't end up crossing farm fields, a lot more ditches here than on the Chaos Communication Camp area :)
