The Südtirol Guest Pass
Discover South Tyrol by bus and train
-
The Südtirol Guest Pass is your personal benefits card and is included in the overnight rate of participating accommodation providers. It is valid for the entire duration of your stay and is non-transferable. In addition, you must validate the pass every time you board a means of transport; failure to do so may result in fines.
Children under the age of 6 do not receive a Südtirol Guest Pass, as they can use public transport – buses and regional trains – free of charge in any case.Dogs are also not issued a Guest Pass; for them, the applicable fare must be paid on buses operated by the public transport network. On the shuttle buses of the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm, dogs may travel free of charge. Please note: a lead and muzzle are mandatory on all buses.
The Südtirol Guest Pass is now available exclusively in digital form. You will receive it by email at check-in. If you do not own a smartphone, you can of course have it printed out at any time.
If you use the smart check-in at your accommodation, you will receive the Guest Pass before your arrival. This is particularly convenient if you are travelling by public transport: the Guest Pass is valid from 00:00 on the day of arrival until 11:59 pm on the day of departure. -

- Use of all shuttle buses (routes 1, 2, 3, 3A, 5, 13 and 15) in the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm (exceptions are listed under “What is not included in the Südtirol Guest Pass?”)

You can plan your journeys using public transport here
-
As the Seiser Alm Aerial Cableway is privately owned, the Südtirol Guest Pass is not valid for this service. On the Seiser Alm Express (route 10), the Guest Pass is valid only as far as the St. Valentin roundabout. It is not valid on the Almbus (route 11), route 12 (Saltria – Monte Pana), the Nightliner N170 or the Tiers ropeway. Long-distance trains (e.g. EC trains, Railjet services, Frecciargento and Italo) cannot be used with the Südtirol Guest Pass either.
-
You must validate your Südtirol Guest Pass at the start of every journey by scanning the QR code at the validation device on the bus.
Please note: for train and ropeway rides, validation must be carried out before boarding; otherwise, penalties may apply. If you need to change during your journey, you do not have to validate your ticket again. -
If you use the smart check-in offered by your accommodation, you will receive the Guest Pass before your arrival. This is particularly convenient if you plan to travel by public transport: the Guest Pass is valid from 00:00 on the day of arrival until 11:59 pm on the day of departure.
Attention: Whether your Guest Pass is valid for your entire journey depends on the means of transport you choose. All public buses and trains of Südtirolmobil are included, but long-distance trains such as Railjets and Eurocity trains are not. -
