So I'm planning my first interrail trip for this coming summer and have a rough idea of where I want to go.

London-Paris-Dijon-bern-Zurich-Venice-Vienna-Budapest-krakow-Prague-Berlin-Amsterdam-Brussels-Paris-London!

I'm going to be travelling alone for the most part I think and will be buying the global 1 month ticket!

Is this a realistic route to cover in a month? I'm not looking to spend ages in one particular place, at most just a couple of days and have relatives/acquaintances near Dijon and in Zurich.
Also I'm going to do a mixture of hostels, couch surfing and night trains if all goes to plan!

Thanks for any advice you can give

:)

Hi Lewis...
It's a nice big round - and possible within one month.
Interesting for you could be one your trip to add an extra trip within the Alps:

And on your way back from the Netherlands/Belgium you could use the ferry to Harwich. It is cheaper than the Eurostar train Paris to London:

Thanks for the advice Peter!
I'm guessing I can book a trip in the alps when I'm out there, definitely interested in doing that!
