Hi
First time interrail-er and was wondering about the best way to get from Brasov to Belgrade, avoiding Bucharest?

Thank you!

Hi.

The best connection is:

[b]Brasov[/b] dep: 1540 | Express train - free of supplements
[b]Bucuresti Nord Gara A[/b] arr: 1934

[b]Bucuresti Nord Gara A[/b] dep: 2045 | night train: [u]https://rail.cc/en/bucharest-belgrade-night-train/f4775[/u]
[b]Beograd[/b] arr: 0851

It's not a big thing to change the train there. As the night train starts in Bucharest, it will be ready for boarding at least 30 minutes before departure.

If you want to avoid Bucharest, you will have to travel via [b]Arad[/b] and wait the whole night in [b]Timisoara[/b] until you can get to the same night train to Belgrade.

Or you travel via Budapest:

[b]1[/b]
[b]Brasov[/b] dep: 2113 | night train: [u]https://rail.cc/en/bucharest-budapest-night-train/f1606[/u]
[b]Budapest-Keleti pu[/b] arr: 0850

[b]Budapest-Keleti pu[/b] dep: 1005 - free of supplements
[b]Beograd[/b] arr: 1745

[b]2[/b]
[b]Brasov[/b] dep: 0656 | supplement EUR 3
[b]Budapest-Keleti pu[/b] arr: 1850

[b]Budapest-Keleti pu[/b] dep: 2330 | night train: [u]https://rail.cc/en/budapest-belgrade-night-train/f3370[/u]
[b]Beograd[/b] arr: 0649

ALL long-distance trains in ROM/on the CFR MUST be reserved-and every time you also pay (a little-1,50€) for that. If you do not do that, the conductor can charge you double that price.
