This train is the year round option for taking a direct train from The Netherlands to The Tyrol in Austria.
On winter Fridays the Alpen Express departs from multiple stations in The Netherlands direct to Kirchberg in Tirol, Kitzbühel, St. Johann in Tirol and Zell am See.
These resorts can be accessed nightly by taking this train and connecting in Worgl.
A rail journey by day from Amsterdam to Innsbruck requires making a minimum of two non-guaranteed connections between trains, so this is a route on which taking the night train is the logical option.
When travelling between most cities by train there is only one logical option, though on other journeys there is a choice between different trains or alternative routes. If different options are available you can use the info to decide which is best for you.
