Getting around central Cologne
The cathedral and Rudolfplatz are close enough to connect on foot, while regional trains serve longer hops. Decide by distance before defaulting to a tram or train.
Walking gives a direct way to link central sights without navigating an extra platform or transfer. For a trip beyond the centre, distinguish the S-Bahn and other regional trains from the city's tram network, then check the relevant departure and ticket before setting out.
Useful to know
Consider walking between Rudolfplatz and the cathedral when you want to see the streets between them.
For longer trips, check whether the departure is an S-Bahn or another regional train and buy the appropriate ticket before boarding.
