Hermann is a stop on Amtrak's Missouri River Runner (St. Louis to Kansas City); the station is at 301 Wharf Street. The trail says Hermannhof is one block from the station, and Hermannhof, Dierberg Star Lane and G. Husmann all sit on E. First Street downtown. Adam Puchta is about two miles southwest of town and Röbller is in New Haven. The Hermann Trolley is a private service, not tied to the trail, and does not go to Röbller. Event tickets do not include transport.
