Starting from Düsseldorf

For me  Düsseldorf   is the ideal base for an exploration of German football :

• There are regular flights to Düsseldorf airport from most parts of the UK, and Eurostar can get you there from London with one change.
• It is on the edge of a huge urban area called the Ruhrgebiet. which is home to many of Germany’s oldest clubs.
• Transport links are cheap, efficient and really easy to use.
• You can easily get to lots of clubs, making it possible to build a short visit around two or three games.
•  Düsseldorf is a great city.

Clubs within easy reach of Düsseldorf .

Starting from Düsseldorf, you can get to at least ten clubs in about an hour on public transport.
