In planning: high-speed train network through Europe

The Falstaff Travel Editors, 11.11.2025

Fast through Europe: the EU wants to massively expand the high-speed train network. By 2040, the European capitals should be seamlessly connected - the train journey from Berlin to Copenhagen will then only take four hours.

The EU Commission has big plans to make rail travel across Europe much more attractive. By 2040 the most important European cities are to be connected by a continuous network of high-speed trains - a project that should finally make the train a climate-friendly alternative to flying.
