Going to the University campus from Grenoble downtown by tram.

The easiest way to go to the University campus from Grenoble downtown is to take a tram.

Buy a ticket -- Before boarding the tram, you can buy a ticket at one of the ticket vending machines available on the tram platforms (credit cards accepted), and you should validate the ticket before entering the tram at one of the validation machines on the platform. The ticket is valid for 1 hour, including connections between every tram lines and buses. You should validate for each connection. Alternatively, you can install “L’appli M” on your smartphone (AppliM), and buy your ticket from there.

Tram B -- Tram B going to “Gières-Plaine des Sports” is direct from the Grenoble train station to the campus in about 20 min. Tram B’s platform is located on your right when exiting Grenoble’s train station (beware: Tram A’s platform is at the same location but does not go to the University campus). The nearest Tram B stop to IPAG is “Les Taillées”, the nearest stop to ENSIMAG is “Gabriel Fauré - MUSE” (right after “Les Taillées”).

Tram C -- If your hotel is located closer to Tram C that also goes to the University campus (towards "Condillac - Universités"), the nearest tram stop to both IPAG and ENSIMAG is “Gabriel Fauré - MUSE”. On your way back to Grenoble downtown, beware that both Tram B and C stop on the same platform at “Gabriel Fauré”.
