What is Interrail?

In reality, it is a concept that was forged to motivate university students to travel aroundEurope in an economical way. In the 2000s it was even a tradition. Finish universityand go for a month with your friends from train to train… it is likely that after severalweeks of traveling you will no longer know if you are in Prague, Milan or in somevillage in Lithuania.

While we’re at it, and being a fervent admirer of train rides, I’m going to leave you a selection of the most beautiful routes in Europe:

It is one of the most emblematic railway lines in the world… although it is also theslowest high-speed train in Europe. The trip from Zermatt to Davos takes no less than 7 hours. But far from seeming like a long trip, it will allow us to calmly enjoy itsbreathtaking scenery. As we climb aboard we will cross more than 90 tunnels and crossmore than 290 amazing bridges.
