Pick the evening you want to go and how you will get there. The planner works out sunset and dusk at Linum for that date, when the cranes fly in, which bus or train gets you there and home, and how many cranes were counted on the same weeks in past years.
Sunset and dusk are calculated for Linum. Bus and train times are the VBB timetable for autumn 2026, checked on 21 September 2026; no bus runs to Linum on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays this season. Crane counts are the Tuesday morning counts of the Landschaftsförderverein Oberes Rhinluch. Stay on roads and paths, keep out of fields and the nature reserve, and never touch a sick or dead bird.
