Kristianstad from Europe

From other parts of Europe, you can take the train to Copenhagen and transfer to the Öresundståg, which will take you directly to Kristianstad, the trip takes about 1,5 hours.

You can also fly to Copenhagen - Kastrup and from there transfer to the Öresundståg to Kristianstad. Tickets must be bought prior to boarding the train. The easiest way is to book the ticket at Öresundstågen, Öresundstågen in English.

Air travellers

For airborne travelers, Kristianstad is easily accessible from the international airport of Copenhagen (Kastrup). From the arrival hall in the airport, it is a two minute walk to the train tracks. All trains towards Sweden leave from track 1. The train for Kristianstad leaves once every hour and the destination is shown on the electronic display over the doors in each train car (posted either “Kristianstad” or “Karlskrona”).

Train tickets need to be purchased before you board the trains. Ticket machines are available in the terminal above track 1 and 2.

Train travellers

Delegates arriving by train from the continent will likely have to change trains at Copenhagen Central Station (Hovedbanegården). Trains bound for Kristianstad (may also be posted “Karlskrona”) leave every hour. There are other trains to Sweden (“Öresundståg”) every 15 or 20 minutes, but if you board one not posted “Kristianstad” or “Karlskrona” you will have to change trains once you are on the Swedish side (stations “Hyllie” or “Malmö Central”), from which there are at least two trains per hour bound for Kristianstad.

 Train tickets need to be purchased before you board the train.

COLOURS is a European University Alliance, co-funded by the European union.
