Transport / Transportation / Shipping / Swiss High German: Swiss Public Transport
German term or phrase: Freizeithaltestelle
What we need here is UK English.

My guess is that a Freizeithaltestelle is what a Bedarfshaltestelle is in Germany. -> Leisure time request stop?

No context avlble.

Any ideas are much appreciated.

American references here; GB doesn't do Freizeithaltestellen, as far as I know. Sorry to use the 's' word again. However, I suspect that railcard is the better term for your previous Q anyway.

Reference information:
"Als einzige Region Deutschlands wurde der Linienverkehr abends und am Wochenende komplett auf die Bedürfnisse ihrer Kunden umgestellt. Insgesamt 15 öffentliche wie private Busunternehmen werden vom Landkreis koordiniert und fahren Samstag, Sonntag und an Feiertagen ca. 400 reguläre Haltestellen wie reine Freizeithaltestellen an. Darunter befinden sich die genannten touristischen Ziele, das Thermalbad Bad Rippoldsau sowie Ausgangs- und Endpunkte von Wander- oder Skilanglauftouren."
