Just in time for peak summer travel season, European rail pass company Eurail has announced an additional partner in Denmark and the launch of two new overnight train routes to Italy.
As of April 1, 2023, Lokaltog — a regional Danish railway company that operates on three of the Scandinavian nation's islands — has been added to the network. The Lokaltog train routes added to the Eurail pass network will not require reservations (reservations are required on some extremely popular rail services), which means travelers with a Eurail pass will be able to explore more of Denmark at no extra cost.
Many of these train lines are on Zealand Island (known in Denmark as Sjælland Island), which is home to the Danish capital of Copenhagen. With the addition of these new routes to the Eurail pass network, those visiting the charming Danish capital will be able to strike out and explore even more of the surrounding region, including coastal villages and Fredensborg Palace.
