Note that Melbourne uses Australian Eastern Standard Time (UT+10) from March to October and Summertime (UT+11) for the rest of the year. During the northern Summer/southern Winter we are therefore 8 hours ahead of Geneva and 17 hours ahead of California, and during the northern Winter/southern Summer we are 10 hours ahead of Geneva and 19 hours ahead of California.

Note that CERN exists on several sites in both Switzerland and France. All locations in the above list are on the main Swiss site (Meyrin) unless specified to be on the French site (Prevessin).

First time visitors are advised to go initially to Reception which is accessible from the Route de Meyrin and contact a group member by telephone for directions. Afterhours help, including prearranged hostel keys, may be obtained from the guard at the main entrance.

CERN is readily accessible from downtown Geneva by taking bus number 9 (destination CERN) from the main railway station at Cornavin. This bus route terminates at CERN's main gate, takes about 20 minutes and costs about 2CHF purchased from machines at each stop. From the airport, either take a taxi direct (specify CERN Meyrin) or catch a bus or train to Cornavin and transfer to bus 9 to CERN. Note there are several alternative destinations on route 9, so check that the destination sign is CERN.
