Car:
The address for the visiting parking lot for cars is: “In der Schwende 6, 89522 Heidenheim”. Due to the congested traffic situation in Heidenheim, we recommend leaving the A7 only at exit 117 – Giengen Herbrechtingen. Take exit 117 – Giengen towards Herbrechtingen/Sontheim/Brenz/Dillingen. Then turn onto the B19 towards Heidenheim. If you follow the football symbol after entering the town, you will easily find the Voith-Arena -> Please follow the street Katzental and keep left at the turn-off to the Voith-Arena in the direction of Mergestetter Reute -> At the pedestrian lights, by the Netto-Markt, please turn left and then immediately left again. The SV Mergelstetten (SVM) sports facilities are already signposted here.
There are plenty of parking spaces for visiting supporters at the SV Mergelstetten sports facilities. From there it is a 10-15 minute walk to the away sector. The footpath leads along the street “Mergelstetter Reute” to the “Baseball Ballpark” entrance or the FCH training grounds “Heerackerweg”. Pass the Baseball Ballpark and walk down the hill on the right for about 500 metres until you reach the away sector of the Voith-Arena.
Buses and minibuses:
Fan buses and small buses shall park directly at the entrance to the away block, where nine-seaters will also be parked. Entrance is from above the Voith-Arena, via the ‘Baseball Ballpark’ or the FCH training grounds ‘Heeräcker’ (see signs). The best bet is to enter the following address in your navigation system: “Heerackerweg 23, 89522 Heidenheim”. Once there, follow the narrow road until you arrive directly at the away block. Security guards will direct you to the parking spaces.
