What Trains routes are there in Croatia?

Can I travel out of Croatia by Trains?

8 of the Trains routes we sell touching Croatia cross a border and 88 stay inside it, reaching 1 other countries including Italy. Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.

Which operators run Trains services in Croatia?

2 operators run Trains services on routes we sell in Croatia: HŽPP, SŽ. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalog, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.

What is the longest Trains route in Croatia?

The longest Trains route we sell touching Croatia runs from Osijek to Zadar, 317 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 197 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.
