Airplane

The nearest airport is Frankfurt am Main (FRA). From there you can take the train, see below.

Don’t confuse Frankfurt/Main with Ryanair’s Frankfurt Hahn (HHN), that’s quite far away in the Hunsrück mountains.

Regional trains to Gießen via Butzbach depart from Frankfurt Airport station usually at hh:01 and hh:31.

On sunday, there’s a connection to FRA about every 2h, e.g. Maibach 9:50, FRA 11:55.

Train/Bus

Next train station is Butzbach. There’s a bus connection to Maibach, line FB-54 (to Maibach) or FB-55 (to Bodenrod). There’s only one bus stop in Maibach.

If you look for a connection on bahn.de (German Railways), give Maibach, Butzbach as destination, then you’ll get also the bus connection.
