Austria – Semmering route

Constructed between 1848 and 1854, the Semmering line was the first railway to be added to the list of UNESCO world heritage sites.  It is also commonly referred to as the world’s first true mountain railway. With the spectacular mountain-scape, tunnels and viaducts along the way there’s no risk of getting bored on this journey. Interrail Passes for Austria are valid on the Semmering line, no supplement or reservation is required.
