Travelling by train means getting on board and leaning back in the chair, while enjoying the landscapes passing by or while reading a book.
Positioned in the heart of Europe, South Tyrol as well as the Merano and Environs holiday area has a good train network, with connecting trains from
Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB),
Swiss Federal Railways (SBB), as well as
Deutsche Bahn (DB).
Once in South Tyrol, DB/ÖBB train travellers can use the
‘Anschlussticket Südtirol’, a ticket that allows travelling with public transportation to get from the train station to their accommodation and vice versa on their day of arrival/departure. This ticket can be purchased directly on the train or at the DB travel centres located at the train stations.
With the ÖBB Nightjet trains, you can travel overnight in a climate-friendly and comfortable way to Merano and Environs from
Amsterdam to Innsbruck.
