I bought a 50% off ticket in the sale last year, and in a few weeks, will finally be heading off for my trip. I have a one month pass, but due to work, can only travel for 2.5 weeks. Finding planning overwhelming and complicated, and travelling over the Easter break seems to mean more pre-booking of both trains and accommodation.
So far I have confirmed:
home - London - 1 night
Eurostar to Lille - 1 night (not booked accommodation yet)
Lille to Lausanne (not entirely sure how to do this, haven't booked train, have made a room reservation in Lausanne)
Lausanne to Zermatt - 2 nights at a hostel in Zermatt
Glacier Express train to St Moritz
Haven't booked anything after that - getting out of Switzerland looks complicated. I'd like to get out asap due to the high costs and already having been there for three nights. I could go south to Italy or keep going to East to Austria. Does anyone have any tips of good places to go in that general area in April? I have a friend in Cologne who's invited me for actual Easter, and I'd also like to get to a small town in the Czech Republic. But feeling lost.
(I thought an interrail ticket would take away the stress of planning, but actually many trains require a seat reservation, so there's way more planning than on a usual trip!)
