Arriving & moving on
Your own way in and out.
The route carries the story; the rails carry everything before it and after it. These are the stretches our travellers most often take on their own — never a rival to the route, the road out of it.
Times are approximate, compiled from operator timetables (Renfe, ONCF, Eurostar, SNCF). Always confirm current schedules before travelling — and send us your arrival; the welcome is arranged.
