Hi, I'm going to make a interrail with more 4 friend, but we are having a little bit difficult to understand which is the best option to get to SPLIT from MILAN with the interrail Pass.
We arrive to milan in 1 August.
I'm a little confused beacause I saw a lot of train changes and inclusive bus to cross borders ( to get to liubliana ? ) .
PS : The point to go to Split is to visit the island Hvar.
Soory for my Bad english but it's not my native language.

Hi.
If you want to travel by [b]train[/b] do it in theses steps:
1 - [b]Milan to Venice[/b] (possible by free trains): [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/milan-to-venice[/u]
2 - [b]Venice to Ljubljana[/b] (border crossing by bus, the only solution): [u]https://rail.cc/blog/travel-lake-bled-train/[/u]
3 - [b]Ljubljana to Zagreb[/b]: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/ljubljana-to-zagreb[/u]
4 - [b]Zagreb to Split[/b], a nice option is the night train: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail/zagreb-to-split[/u]
If you want to have a stop in between, think about Lake Bled in Slovenia (including as well a scenic railway journey from the Italian border to the lake).
Other option is to include a [b]ferry[/b].
Either by direct Frecciabianca (reservation fee EUR 10) or cheaper Regional+IC trains (change in Bologna) to Ancona. From there by ferry.
This should be the more relaxing route. :)
