The International Space Science Institute is located in the district “Länggasse” very close to Bern main rail station. When standing on the platform, do not walk down into the station itself but rather take the stairway up at the western end of the platform called “Welle”. Follow the road walking gradually uphill on Schanzen- and Länggassstrasse. Turn right at Hallerstrasse and find the Institute on the left, street number 6. If you come by public transport “Bern Mobil” you have to take the Bus No. 20 (direction: Länggasse), and get off at the station “Universität”.
