Question
Hi there. Sorry if this isn't your area but do you know anything about the eurail. My family and I are travelling from france to italy throught the swiss alps by eurail train. We were planning to stay in Brig to go skiing. I was just wondering if you knew what train route is the most scenic from france to Brig so that we get the best from our trip. Thank you so much...

Answer
In my experience, many of the trains that travel those types of distances do so at night. Personally, this was frustrating. If you are able to arrange the trip for daytime, Innsbruck and Salzburg are two very pretty cities that could be along your route south. That whole area was gorgeous. I hope you can work it out. :-)
