Hi!

I dont know which ticket you have (and I hope you bought it through [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux] to support our work, thank you); but a possible route could look like this:

Paris - night train to St Gervais - Chamonix - Mont Blanc Express to Martigny (the Swiss part of the route is operated by TMR, 50% discount with IR), then either via the Rhone Valley and along Lake Geneva and Lausanne to Bern or via Bern and the old Lötschberg line to Bern; an alternative would be to go from Lausanne via the Golden Pass Line to Spiez and then to Bern; from Bern back to Spiez and continue the Golden Pass Line to Luzern, then via the Gotthard line to Chiasso (and Milan if you want to visit), then back to Switzerland and the Bernina route, before you head to Austria. Take the Arlberg line to Innsbruck, then continue towards Bled - Prague (via Graz - Vienna) - Berlin - Amsterdam.

Hey thanks for getting back to me,
I did indeed and it is a 22 days continuous pass.
My travel up until Amsterdam will be 15 days. I was thinking of flying to Geneva in Switzerland before starting on trains the next day. I want to see a lot of the alps and now cutting out Milan. Also wanted to visit Budapest on my way from Slovenia to Austria. Do you think 15 days is enough for this route?

Kind regards
Sam
