Hi guys!
Me and 2 friends are doing the interrail for 22 days in September!We are flying from Lisbon (home) to Zagreb where we are planning to start the trip!
We thought about visiting the following cities:
Zagreb - Ljubljana - Vienna - Budapeste - Auschwitz -Dresden -Prague -Munique - Monaco -Barcelona - Home.
Do you guys think this is too ambitious for a 22 days trip?If so,what would you change?
Also if anyone knows a better order to visit this cities feel free to make changes on the route that i suggested!

can do, but its rushed
For Oswiecim=Auschwitz, stay in nearby Krakow.
Trip Krak-DD is now quite complicated-as direct trains are withdrawn over PL-DE border. Consider polskibus-sometimes as low as 1 eur- overnight for Krakow-Berlin, then use train (or any of the cheap german buses) onward to DD.
The city in south DE is MÜnchen (or Munich in english).-otherwise you get stranded up in travelplanners.
BUT Italians call it Monaco!!
The real Monaco is just very expensive and has no cheap places at all-stay in nearby Nice, just 15-20 mins by train. Nice-Barca can do in 1 day, but has many changes and will cost a lot extra for the hi-speed. AND if you are ES/catalan, must pay for the final trayecto in ES-see if ID-bus has the 19 eur singles for the nightbus from Marseille to Barca.

Hi Pedro.
Ntrain gave already a lot of information. Nice route overall.

Auschwitz is good to do as day trip from Krakow: [u]https://rail.cc/en/oswiecim/museum-auschwitz-birkenau/l968[/u]

Munich to Monaco: think about including this route crossing Switzerland for free, on an amazing route - [u]https://rail.cc/blog/zurich-milano-albula-bernina/[/u]
Instead of Monaco I would personally stay in Nice, much better, cheaper and much more to do there. Stop in Monaco for 2-3 hours, walk around and leave it. That's enough.
Nice: [u]https://rail.cc/en/nice/c[/u]
As option Marseille, also with a lot of nice places: [u]https://rail.cc/en/marseille/nice-place/c[/u]
And as well interesting the blog from Katrin: [u]https://rail.cc/blog/scenic-train-cote-bleue/[/u]

Nice/Marseille to Barcelona is possible to travel for free without extra reservation fees: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/nice-to-barcelona[/u]

You could stop as well in Perpignan and from there include the Little Yellow Train:
