Route and stops
The line starts at Putbus station, the Residenzstadt with its castle, castle park and theatre, and leads via Lauterbach on the bodden coast into the interior. Through Beuchow, Posewald, Seelvitz and Serams it reaches Binz.
After Binz come the stops Jagdschloß – for Granitz Hunting Lodge – and Garftitz. Then comes Sellin with its two stops Sellin West and Sellin Ost, followed by Baabe. The terminus is Göhren.
The trains run all year, on a reduced timetable and far less frequently in winter. Steam locomotives are mostly used. The branch from Putbus to Lauterbach Mole is served on around 180 days a year, while the main line to Göhren runs daily.
A day out with children
The Bäderbahn is easy with children: short journey times, open carriages in fine weather and plenty of stops to get off at. Reduced single tickets are available for children aged 6 to 13, and family tickets cover two adults and three children.
A classic family outing is the trip from Baabe to Binz or Putbus, returning on foot or by bike. Combining it with a walk through the Baaber Heide works well too, because the railway crosses the heath.
In the rain the railway is a reliable option – you sit in the dry and still see something of the island.
