OK Traveling in August from Bayreuth DE to St. Moritz-It’s 9 hours with 4(!) transfers. Not sure it is advisable but particularly because one connection is 7 minutes.Is this a crazy endeavour? On one transfer it tells me its a 10 minute walk. This one in Nurnberg has nothing just “transfer”The means of getting between these two points are kind of limited. I could probably drive it but cars are insanely expensive with drop off in a different country as would be a car service though it might actually make some sense.I’m trying to plan carefully rather than put myself into a difficult situation.
Trying to plan with rail seeming the best option. Arriving in Munich, then to Bayreuth for Wagner festival.Next to St. Moritz. It seems there are several changes required and I will likely have one large suitcase and something else. I have a hanging bag which would be ideal for my dress clothing, but fear it might be difficult to navigate the changes so am considering a decent sized back pack. I will likely practice pack and adjust what I take.The friends I am meeting in St Moritz say the hotel will drive us to the station and help us get on the train to ZUR and they claim 2d class is fine.OK, I have taken trains before to and from Bayreuth and we always took 1st and it was still difficult to find space for luggage.Any ideas for how I can best navigate this trip or have I boxed myself in? I could rent a car to go Bayreuth-St Moritz or even hire a car and driver, but both are quite expensive. I am old but pretty fit(at least no disabilities) but changing trains always involves
OK. From what I remember, while the trains are fast and efficient in Europe, it is very difficult to navigate them with baggage, especially if there are numerous changes.At Bayreuth, I will need dress clothing so will most likely require more than one bag. My next stop would be St Moritz, which involves four(!) changes on the journey.I’m thinking rail is not the best way to navigate this journey. Even Frankfurt or other major city might be difficult but on a direct train manageable.
OK I think of myself as fairly savvy and experienced but I’m trying to rough out a train route for an upcoming trip but, although I know there are trains to Bayreuth, Germany, the destination pops up as not known! In the past I know I booked trains from Frankfurt and Hamburg. Am I missing something?
