The airport bus takes you to close to all hotels downtown as well as a bus stop a few minutes away from the venue. The bus return ticket costs approx. 240 NOK (27 EUR). You can pay with cash or credit card in the bus or book it in advance.
Airport Taxi
If you would like to use a taxi from the airport to your hotel, we commend to book it in advance. The one-way trip costs 399 NOK (42 EUR) - taking an unbooked taxi at the airport will easily cost twice. You can pay with cash or credit card in the bus or book it in advance.
Local Bus
An easy way to get around Trondheim is the local bus service called AtB. Transportation to dinners and to the hike is organized. However, if you prefer to take the bus to the venue AtB is a good option. As you can see from the map, most buses from downtown go towards "Professor Brochs gate". If you get off there, cross the street and walk up the hill to the university campus. From there signs will guide you to the conference venue in "Realfagsbygget". You can pay cash in the buses, but you can also use their app to travel with it.
Bikes
If you would like to bike, there are bikes all over town. The service is run by ClearChannel. In order to get a card, please go to the Tourist Office downtown in Nordre gt 11. It's open all day between 9-18.
