So me and some friends are currently planning a trip through Europe. Nothing is really set in stone yet, our first question is if we want to do a roadtrip with a camper-van or an Interrail trip.
I guess the advantage of a train would be, that it would be a lot more enjoyable to cover larger distances than with a camper. I thought, maybe it would be really cool, if we did like a larger tour through Europe, so I researched a bit and planned a hypothetical trip through Germany (where we live) to Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and back to Germany.
That sounds like a lot, but with the train routes, I looked up it would be doable with only 9 travel days, 4 of which would take the whole day (10-12 hours) and 5 of which would only take half a day (4-6 hours). I thought, that could be quite reasonable and it would be a great adventure type trip.
Do you think that could be cool, or would it get exhausting to quick?
It would be very cool. If you go to Finland, know that with the interrail ticket you can get a reduced price on ferries (-20% or smthg).
You should know that booking the train tickets is a pain in some countries (e.g. France, but that's not in your itinerary: there the interrail seats are very limited, very quickly booked, and tickets can be booked earliest 3 months in advance).
If I recall correctly there is a night train going from Berlin to Stockholm through Hamburg and Denmark. That's a nice option.
