EMMI-MOBIL is the new innovative form of mobility in Bad Hindelang. It complements the existing public transport with an on demand solution. Two electric 8-seat minibuses are running schedule-free through the whole municipality so that we can offer a public form of mobility that offers high levels of flexibility and availability. You can book a ride via the EMMI-Mobil app. Requests from different users who have similar destinations are being matched together (so called ride pooling). As customers can leave their car at home EMMI-MOBIL supports reduction of emissions in Bad Hindelang. EMMI-MOBIL picks you up at the closest (virtual) station after you booked your ride. We offer an extensive amount of virtual stations throughout the municipality. For additional information visit our FAQ sections at www.badhindelang.de/emmimobil
