An overnight rail service between the UK and Austria’s ski area is being promoted as an alternative to the hassles of flying for British skiers.
The Bergland Express train travels overnight direct to famous Austrian ski resorts such as St Anton, Kitzbuhel, Innsbruck and Zell am See. In many cases you arrive ready to hit the slopes at 9am.
This winter the Bergland Express will stop at Aachen every Friday after a short connection with the Eurostar in Brussels at 14:34 local time.
Double and three-berth sleepers are available, as well as four- and six-berth couchette compartments.
The train returns a week later on Saturday evening for a mid-morning London arrival on Sunday.
