Can someone advise me as to the most expedient route to get to St. Anton? I will be leaving LaSpezia Italy and wondered about going through Zurich to St. Anton or Bologna Italy to Innsbruck to St. Anton, we only have one day to go to St. Anton, Austria before heading back to Zurich. Anyone, know train travel??? thanks, Mary

You can check timetables at www.bahn.de (German rail websie)

Hi Mary - Trenitalia suggests the Innsbruck option - either via Milan/Verona or Bologna.

Either way it's a 12hr journey.

For details see:

It's also possible overnight if you prefer.

Hope this helps ...
