Sustainable congress and conference location

Mobility within the city

Whether on foot, by bike or e-car: Wiesbaden offers numerous options for environmentally conscious city and congress guests.

Wiesbaden scores highly in terms of urbanity and walking infrastructure when it comes to mobility. From the large congress center and smaller event locations to restaurants, theaters, museums and accommodation, almost everything in Wiesbaden is within walking distance, making your event a "greener" event.

The RMCC is just a 5-minute walk from Wiesbaden's main railway station. You can reach at least 5 large hotels within a 10-minute walk of the RMCC. The Kurhaus Wiesbaden can be reached by a 10-minute walk along the magnificent Wilhelmstraße and through the parks. For your event guests, this means not only being climate and environmentally friendly, but also being able to travel healthily and explore the city comfortably between events.

Theoretically, conference guests do not need any means of transportation to move between the train station, location and hotels - depending on the location of your chosen hotel.

Cycling infrastructure

Since the establishment of the municipal cycling office in 2018 and the multiplication of the annual cycling budget, a number of important projects have been implemented in Wiesbaden to promote cycling (opens in a new tab) and thus strengthen cycling as a whole.

There are Bike+Ride bike boxes (opens in a new tab) for locking bikes at Wiesbaden's main railway station.

And during events such as the Theatrium, the Rheingau Wine Week or the Autumn Market, as well as every Saturday, there are guarded bicycle lockers available free of charge in the city center to support environmentally friendly travel by bicycle.

On Saturdays, a guarded bicycle checkroom is available free of charge from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Dern'schen site.

Rent a bike

Event guests can use rental bikes to get around the city quickly and spontaneously.

With"Call a Bike (opens in a new tab)" from Deutsche Bahn and"Nextbike (opens in a new tab)" (bike station opposite the RMCC), rental bikes are offered for flexible use in the city - register and activate once and you're ready to go.

Rewards with the DB Rad+ bike app

In cooperation with Deutsche Bahn, the state capital of Wiesbaden offers the bicycle app DB Rad+ (opens in a new tab) to motivate people to use their bicycles more often. Anyone who collects kilometers with Rad+ can redeem them for numerous discounts with the app's partners or use them to pay for a cappuccino, apples or even admission to the Wiesbaden Museum.

While app users have a direct incentive from cycling, everyone benefits from better air quality and less climate-damaging CO2 when the bicycle replaces the car.


Electromobility

Thanks to federal e-funding and an e-mobility concept (opens in a new tab) in Wiesbaden, the number of electrically powered vehicles in Wiesbaden continues to rise. At the same time, the charging infrastructure is also being steadily expanded. There are now over 320 publicly accessible charging points in Wiesbaden. Eight of these are located in the underground car park of the RMCC and two in front of the Jagdschloss Platte. There are also two parking spaces in the Kurhaus Wiesbaden outdoor parking lot (behind the Kurhaus colonnade).

There are numerous ESWE charging stations (opens in a new tab) directly in the city center. Here, e-mobilists can "fill up" their vehicles with 100 percent ESWE Natur-Strom.

The city of Wiesbaden plans to install around 1,280 charging points by 2025 and a total of around 1,680 charging points [HK1] by 2030 in order to meet the increasing demand for charging infrastructure in the city.


Car sharing

Since 2020, the expansion of station-based car sharing on public streets in Wiesbaden has been driven forward. In four years, the car sharing offer has more than doubled and now comprises around 180 vehicles at 105 stations once the new stations are up and running.

Three car sharing providers ("book-n-drive", (opens in a new tab) "scouter" (opens in a new tab) and "stadtmobil RheinMain") (opens in a new tab) are active in Wiesbaden; a digital map (opens in a new tab) shows the different locations.

There is also a car sharing station opposite the RMCC that can be used by congress guests. This is located at Rheinstraße 23-25 and is operated by the provider scouter.
