Frankfurt (www.frankfurt-airport.com) is Germany’s main international airport hub, served by every major airline. There is a train station right at the airport with direct (fast) trains to either Stuttgart or Karlsruhe, where local trains leave for Pforzheim.

Basel/Mulhouse (EuroAirport: www.euroairport.com/en) is well connected to many airports in the UK, Ireland and other parts of Europe. Since the Westweg ends in Basel it is a convenient airport to fly out of. But beware – although the terminal is quite small, it can be a bit confusing. The terminal building is divided into a Swiss and a French side, each with its separate entrances, customs and passport controls. Be sure to know which side your flight departs from (or which exit you want to take, if you arrive here!).

Basel also has three train stations: the central station (Basel SBB), the French SNCF right next to it and Badischer Bahnhof on the other side of the Rhine, which is located on Swiss territory but run by the German train service, DB.
