Regional trains are operated under the VVM tariff union, meaning you won't get a price quote for some connections at the bahn.de website but will at the vvm website. The city is on the Würzburg – Frankfurt railway line and can be reached by RE. Trains run at least every hour from both directions and stop at the only station "Lohr Bahnhof". The train station is about 2 kilometers from the city center and is connected to the public transport system.

Lohr is on the eastern edge of the Rhine-Main area, about 80 km by car from Frankfurt. From there Lohr can be reached via Autobahn 3 (exit Weibersbrunn) in about 1 hour by car.
