We're planning our first interrail, and will go with our kids (10 and 6 yrs)

This is our current plan:
We're flying to Zürich and quickly moving towards with the Bernia Express to St. Moritz.
We plan to stay in St. Moritz for a couple of days, any suggestions of activites are welcome (bathing, trekking etc)
We're moving on to Innsbruck, Linz (my wife was Au-Pair there) and Wien staying just one night each place.
Then Lake Bled and Ljublijana where we're staying for 3 and 2 days.
Then to Baska Voda in Croatia for approx a week, with trips to the islands and maybe Dubrovnik. We're still debating to take the boat to Ancona from Split or the train as we're planning to have a base at one beach resort at the east coast in Italy, before we return home from Milano.

Any comments and suggestions of our plans are welcome.

1.as your trips are with longer intervals/stays in those places, I doubt if a IR-global would pay for it. And the other cheaper passes must be used in shorter times. In Swiss-if you get a special pass+Foto of the kids on it, you can have them travel with you for free. (untill 16 yrs)
2.from St. Moritz on to Innsbruck-Linz means a backtrack on same way-till main SB line from Zurich into Austria. The bernina ONLY runs onward from St. Moritz toward Italy-though you could make daytrip on it while you stay in St.M.
3.in Hrvatska=Croatia for you, trains only run as far as Split (but many more buses Zagreb-Split, that also serve the Lakes of Plitvice, a major sight), along the coast to Dub is either bus or, maybe, the infrequent along thecoast boat service. (only 3-4 times/week)
