Biysk Getting there & around

Getting there & away

The bus and train stations face each other across a large square at the north end of ul Mitrofanova, 2km west of the Hotel Tsentralnaya and 4km from the historic centre. Useful overnight trains to Novosibirsk (R280 platskart, 11 hours) leave at 8.15pm. Buses leave frequently until 7.30pm for Gorno-Altaisk (R65, two hours) and Barnaul (R138, three hours). Shared taxis are faster. Handy, if slow, daily buses rattle across to Novokuznetsk (R200, six to seven hours, four daily).
