Smoother travelling
VR’s first and last mile connections make it easy and environmentally friendly to travel to your destination
Travel more smoothly from door to door
Trips including first or last mile connections consist of multiple modes of transport. For example, you can first travel by a long-distance train and then continue your journey on a local bus or rented car. Mix different modes of transport and travel flexibly – from your front door to your final destination.

Climate <3 last mile
The goal of VR’s first and last mile connections is to provide services that allow you to leave your own car at home. These services use trains and other modes of transport and help reduce the overall use of private vehicles and their CO2 emissions. Get to know our different options and see what kind of first or last mile connection would suit you - and our climate - best.
Connecting the whole journey
Trains are one of the best modes of transport, but reaching the station or your final destination may sometimes be troublesome. This is where the idea for first and last mile connections came from: travel arrangements for multi-stage trips that make travelling to and from the station easier for you. Now you can enjoy both the comforts of train travel as well as a smoother overall journey.
