Hello Interrail!

I would like to do next year in the summer months, an Inter-Rail trip! Actually I am interested to Scandinavia and Ireland!

Now I have following questions:

How do I control this in advance with train reservations, etc.? If for example I run all the places in the trains I want to use the reserve and miss a connecting train, so I miss my booking?

The next problem I have is that I do not know how long I should take into account each city?

I plan to stay in youth hostels, how to book these at best and where?

I probably buy me the 1-month inter-rail pass!

Another question: how much money should I take abroad and how (cash, ATM card,...)?

Currently, I only planned to travel to Scandinavia (actually, only the order of cities):

Graz - Vienna
Vienna - Munich
Munich - Berlin

[No idea how I get from Berlin to Kobenhavn]

Kobenhavn - Stockholm
Stockholm - Uppsala
Uppsala - Trondheim
Trondheim - Oslo
Oslo - Bergen
Bergen - Oslo
Oslo - Kobenhavn

From then on, unfortunately I have no idea how to get to Ireland on the best way?

Can someone help me please?


PS: Sorry for my bad English!

Hi.

There is as well a German section of the forum which you can use, if you prefer German language:
[u]https://rail.cc/de/forum-interrail[/u]

A lot of questions and still one year to go. The best is to read the forum as all questions are already answered there. :)

Also on the website you will find information...

[b]Reservations[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation[/u]
If you miss a train, bad luck. Then you lost your reservation. In most cases there are connections available without extra reservation fees: [u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]

[b]How long in each city[/b]: depends on your character. Some like rushing trough and make kilometres, others prefer to stay 2-3 days in one city. :)

[b]Hostels[/b]: [ux]https://rail.shop/hostelworld[/ux]

[b]Money[/b]: ATMs available all over Europe. Read here: [u]https://rail.cc/en/money[/u]

[b]Calculate your trip[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/overall-costs[/u]

Concerning connections use the link I gave you above. There you will find as well for example [b]BERLIN - COPENHAGEN[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/berlin-to-copenhagen[/u]

[b]Train schedules, reservation and supplements[/b] - all here on this site: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail[/u]

Your planed tour: you only want to see Sweden and Norway. Think about as well using a ferry to Finland... and the Inlandsbanan in Sweden. In Northern-Norway you have the Lofoten. So a lot to see and to do there.
