Can I come along to simply meet new people or work on my own project?

By all means! That's exactly what our events are all about: tinkering, crafting, working on your own projects that you don't have time for at home and gathering new inspiration in the process. Another point is to make new contacts and get to know people. If you would like to bring something bigger than just your laptop and Arduino (etc.), please send us a short email in advance: hotb@chaostreff-flensburg.de.

Travelling

Bus

Bus route 3 goes to Solitüde. From the bus stop "Flensburg Solitüde" it is approx. 6 minutes on foot to the beach pavilion. It is also possible to take bus number 7 to the bus stop "Flensburg Twedter Feld". From there it is approx. 20 minutes on foot to the beach pavilion. There is a night bus service from Twedter Plack. The last bus N2 leaves at 03:16 from Twedter Plack to e.g. Flensburg ZOB. You can find the bus connections in Flensburg in the DB-Navigator or at nah.sh. A live location of the buses can be found at busradar-flensburg. FlixBus travels from most major cities in Germany (Kiel, Hamburg, Bremen, Hanover, Berlin,...) and Denmark (Aarhus, Copenhagen, Kolding,...). All connections end at the railway station in Flensburg. With Sydtrafik there is also a Danish provider that stops at the ZOB. It is about 30 minutes by bike from the railway station to Hacks on the Beach. By bus, it is approx. 5 minutes from the ZOB to the railway station.

Train

There are various train connections ~~ from Kiel (approx. 1 hour) and ~~ from Hamburg (approx. 2 hours) by regional train. There is often even mobile internet and power sockets on the trains. You should not rely on mobile internet and enjoy the digital detox. Occasionally, Danish ICs also run from Hamburg to Flensburg. There is a daily EC connection from Prague to Flensburg. For groups without a €49 ticket, the Schleswig-Holstein ticket from Hamburg is worthwhile. You can buy Sparpreis tickets via detours, which are also worthwhile due to the high regional train prices. You can travel from Denmark with the Danish State Railway.

Car

Hacks on the Beach is easy to reach via the A7 motorway and then the B200. From Hamburg you need about 1 hour and 55 minutes. From Sonderburg it is approx. 40 minutes and from Kiel approx. 1 hour. There are numerous parking spaces within walking distance (approx. 2 minutes / 200 metres), but no parking spaces directly at the venue. Caravan parking is generally not a problem. Toilets and showers are not available. There are no showers at the venue. Note: There are additional parking spaces, you can see whether they are occupied or available in the CityPilot app. Android | Apple
