Tram line 3: Sorin aukio – Hakametsä – Hervantajärvi

Tram line 3 connects the southern edge of central Tampere at Sorin aukio with the south-eastern district of Hervanta. Along the way the tram passes through Kaleva, Hakametsä and the Hervanta campus, ending in the south at Hervantajärvi.

The end-to-end journey takes about 28 minutes, and on weekdays the frequency is roughly 7–8 minutes. Line 3 is the main connection to the centre for Hervanta’s students and commuters — the Hervanta campus is the largest campus of Tampere University.

Line 3 also runs a night tram on Friday and Saturday nights, so you can travel between the centre and Hervanta well into the night.

Tip: in the city centre lines 1 and 3 share the same track between Sammonaukio and Koskipuisto. From these four stops you can catch either tram, and within the same 90-minute ticket you can change line at no extra charge.
