Ferries/Boats

Hello Interrailers. Would appreciate any info. on what Interrail discounts (or free on a travel day) are available for ferries/boats for short(ish) river/lake trips. I saw one Community post about Lake Constance, but the links are now outdated and the bsb.de site doesn't seem to have specific info. re. Interrail (that I can find in English). I will be on a GP in July visiting Salzburg, Munich, Black Forest, Metz, Ghent-Oostende, Amsterdam/NL, Magdeburg (Elbe?), Prague and leave from Vienna. If anyone has done any water trips in any of these areas I'd love to know what trips my 2 teens and I could take to connect even just 2 cities (e.g. Lindau-Friedrichshafen on a Munich day trip loop). Thanks in advance for any tips. Happy training :)

Remember you don't need to use a travel day when you only get a discount.

Thank you very much for taking the time. I’ve been through all of them now and it seems there isn’t anything for Lake Constance. Next time Brienz or Thun :)

You do get 50% reduction on Lake Constance.

Hektor, thank you very much, I just realised I didn’t respond to your post. I’m searching all the possibilities now - it’s a big lake! :)

I would recommend you the URh from Kreuzlingen via Konstanz to Schaffhausen → https://www.urh.ch/fahrplan-fruehling

It’s by far the most beautiful trip on/near Lake Constance IMO.
