For those of you coming the first time to Gothenburg, we have some information about travelling to Gothenburg (including discounts on SAS), how to get around and what to do (other than FSCONS).

Getting here

The best bus line to take is number 16, which also passes by the central station on the way to Lindholmen. From the central station to Lindholmen with bus 16 is about 4 minutes.

By car: If coming on the E6 from Oslo, take exit 77 and follow the signs towards Norra Älvstranden and Lindholmen. After 2 kilometers you take a left and drive under a railroad bridge. Take the first left, and then right in the roundabout. Drive straight and you will find the IT University on your left hand side after ca 600 meters.

If coming on the 40 from Jönköping OR the E20 from Malmö, drive straight through Gothenburg towards Hisingen. Then follow signs Norra Älvstranden and Lindholmen.
