Munich - Zagreb - Belgrade (EuroCity Train)

The train between Munich, Zagreb and Belgrade takes a stunning route through the Austrian Alps. The journey is made onboard a EuroCity train, which is comfortable, and consists of a mix of Slovenian and Serbian coaches. A restaurant car is usually attached to the train.

If you don't like the sound of this daytime train, there is an overnight sleeper train between Munich and Zagreb, the Lisinki sleeper train.

There are only two direct services a day between Munich and Zurich. If these times aren't suitable however, there are alternative indirect services that you could catch, travelling via Salzburg and/or Villach. There is also an alternative direct overnight option (found on a different GT page).

Connecting services are also available to/from Belgrade, Sofia and Thessaloniki and Athens.

Tickets  for travel between Munich and Zagreb/Belgrade aren't that cheap, but for a day of travel, it certainly isn't a bad option. Special advance fares are also available for this route, and should be booked in advance (as early as possible).
