This is the kind of brilliant initiative that we like at Destination(s) Europe. At a time when air travel, especially for short distances, is blacklisted, there is a site that may help you reduce your carbon footprint. Is it really responsible to go by air, at the cost of burning tons of kerosene, when the rail can take us to our destination with an almost comparable travel time? Whatever your opinion, after reading this article, you will no longer be able to say that you do not know of a more eco-friendly alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83d\udca1 Travel well-informed<\/strong>. Find all our tips for safe travel in Europe in our Travel Resources section<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indeed, the Chronotrain.eu<\/strong><\/a> site allows you to see all the destinations available within 5 hours by train from a station of your choice in Europe. An orange colour gradient indicates those within one, two, three, and four hours. It works for many countries in the European Union, as well as for Norway, the United Kingdom and even Ukraine. However, at the time of writing these lines, the Baltic countries and the Western Balkans are missing from the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The lines are not visible, but you will realize, for example, that it is possible to go to Pau from Paris by train in less than five hours.\u00a0But Pau is served by Air France and Transavia from the capital, and it’s still faster by plane, you might say. Are you sure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Isochrones \ud83d\ude0d ! This map shows you how far a 5h train ride will take you, departing from any city in Europe.https:\/\/t.co\/6F4dJ80N87<\/a>
