The Bielýs train station offers easy train connections with Bern, Zurich and Neuchýtel.
The Swiss Pass is a great way to see and learn about Switzerland. It covers both trains and busses giving you unlimited rides within selected period. The passes are good for unlimited usage for 4, 8, 15, 22 days or 1 month. The passes are valid on the legendary scenic routes and also good on the public transportation systems of 35 Swiss cities (including Biel, Bern, Neuchýtel etc.). Do not forget about Saver Passes - if two or more persons travel together, each one receives a 15% discount. Swiss Pass holders also receive many discounts on mountain top excursions and other services. The Youth Swiss Pass is available for youths up to 26 years old (children up to 16 years of age travel free).
Our family bought the 8-days Saver Pass for 3 adults ($192 p/p) and 2 separate 8-days Youth Passes ($169 p/p).

By train, you can by a combined Day Pass that´s valid for the Arteplage and the train. The arteplages are all connected very well....
By car it´s quite expensive. A car with less than 4 people costs 30 CHF and you won´t have another choice than to take that special parking. With 4 people it costs 40 CHF and I guess for all parking lots at all arteplages it´s 50 CHF....
By foot! Take good shoes, as you have to queue for a while!!!
