How to travel from ULM to ELK?
ULM
Ulm is a city on the Danube River in the German state of Baden-Württemberg in the south of the country. It has a long history - in sources the name "Ulma" appears as early as 856, and Ulm has had city rights since 1181. Walking around the city, one can see a successful mix of historical buildings and modern, also very futuristic buildings.
The largest monument here is the Gothic cathedral, famous for having the world's tallest tower. From it you can enjoy views of the immediate and somewhat distant environs of Ulm. Attractions in the city include the Fischerviertel - the Fishermen's Quarter stretching along the banks of the Danube. Here you can stroll along narrow, cobblestone streets amid charming little houses. One of them, known as Schiefes Haus, or the late Gothic "crooked house," is deflected from the vertical by about 10° due to the rather sodden ground. Ulm offers a large number of cultural events with the most famous one, the Danube Festival, at the top, many theaters, art galleries and interesting museums like the Bread and Art Museum. While you're here, be sure to stop by Germany's largest botanical garden, run by the University of Ulm. It covers an area of 28 hectares and showcases vegetation from all of Earth's climatic zones. Friedrichsau Park, with its small lakes and picnic areas, will also be a good place for a stroll in the city.

ELK
In Elk you will find two city beaches, both of which are sandy, although in truth in high season it will probably be difficult to find even a meter of free space anyway. There is also a sizable park, several children's playgrounds and a bunch of playrooms. Elk also has an interesting museum, offering, among other things, a ride on a narrow-gauge train.
How to get to and from Elk - buses and timetables
To get from or to Elk, for example, you can use a bus. Buses Sindbad leave from Elk's PKS station, which is located right next to the railroad station. Therefore, if you happen to be going to Elk by train, but then want to change to another means of transport, the change itself will not take you more than a few minutes.
In our opinion, however, it is worth getting to Elk by bus, as trains in high season can be overloaded with people heading to the Baltic cities.
The PKS station in Elk, despite the fact that Google shows that it no longer exists, still serves our buses. It may not currently be as impressive as Elk's train station, but nevertheless our buses go to and from Elk from station one.
