Travelling by car

For participants coming by car, the European motorway E75 routes through Niš. From the north, you may use any highway from the Hungarian border over Novi Sad and Belgrade to Niš. From the northwest, you can travel over Austria, via Slovenia and Croatia to Belgrade and then to Niš. These are all modern highways, including the section Belgrade – Niš. It is a fast road with four lanes and 130km/h speed limit. At this speed, travel time from Belgrade is usually two hours. The same goes for travelers coming from the direction of Bulgaria or Northern Macedonia. Modern highways run from the borders of both countries to Niš. Tolls are paid for highways within Serbia, while vignettes are required in Bulgaria.

 

Travelling by bus

Almost all buses traveling from the northwest into Bulgaria or further southeast to Turkey will stop in Niš. All buses traveling between Belgrade and Greece or Macedonia will stop in Niš. An average bus ride from Belgrade will take three hours, but make sure you opt for a “direct“ bus from Belgrade central bus station, as some buses will stop in a dozen towns on the way, sometimes getting out of the highway, and prolong the ride considerably.

 

Travelling by train

Railway links include international trains from Thessaloniki (Greece) to Ljubljana (Slovenia), via Skopje, Niš, Belgrade and Zagreb, as well as from Istanbul (Turkey) to Vienna (Austria), via Sofia, Niš, Belgrade and Budapest. The trains are usually slow and not very clean, but tickets are cheap, the scenery is beautiful, and sleeping cars are usually an option. The train station is 2 km east of the main square, a half hour's walk.
