By train 

Train is not the most convenient way to come to Heidelberg as you sometimes need to change trains twice. From the main station in Heidelberg you can reach us by taxi (takes approximately 5 mins) or you can take the tram line R65 or 5R in the direction of Mannheim and get off the tram at the second stop, "Berufsschule" (takes approximately 3 mins). From there you go right and then left to Wieblinger Weg.

Please check the  train timetable for more details.
