Our Night Train Services
Traveling at night. Waking up in the Alps
With UEX Night, the Urlaubs-Express night train, your vacation begins the moment you board. Hop on in the evening, leave your daily routine behind, and look forward to a pleasant overnight journey. While you sleep or simply enjoy the ride, our night train will take you safely toward the Alps. Without needing your own car, dealing with traffic jams, or spending long hours behind the wheel, you’ll arrive the next morning in some of Austria’s most beautiful vacation regions. This way, even the journey itself becomes a special part of your vacation.
Get on in Germany. Wake up in Austria
From Hamburg via Bremen, Osnabrück, Münster, Dortmund, Essen, Düsseldorf, Cologne, and Bonn, our night trains take you directly to the Austrian Alps. On select dates, we also offer connections via Berlin. This opens up attractive options for travelers from numerous regions of Germany to comfortably travel to their winter vacation destinations overnight. Whether it’s St. Anton am Arlberg, Ötztal, Kitzbühel, Saalbach, or Zell am See—with UEX Night, you can reach popular vacation destinations in Tyrol and the Salzburg region. Many of our destination stations are located right in the heart of winter sports regions and serve as ideal starting points for your stay. You can find all connections and boarding points in our winter schedules.
Your Night. Your Comfort
Whether it’s a seat, a cozy couchette, a comfortable sleeper car, or a junior suite—with UEX Night, you choose how you want to travel. Make yourself comfortable in your compartment and enjoy the special atmosphere of a night train journey. Here, you’ll have time to read, relax, or simply enjoy each other’s company. Our onboard Bistro invites you to enjoy snacks, drinks, and a pleasant time with others. Upon request, you can enjoy breakfast right in your compartment. Your ski and snowboard gear also travels with you in the free ski compartment. That way, you’ll have everything you need for a great start to your winter vacation.

More space thanks to the free ski compartment
Free Ski Compartment
Store Your Winter Sports Gear Conveniently
To ensure you can relax and enjoy your trip right from the start, we offer our winter sports guests a free ski compartment for skis and snowboards. This leaves more space in your own compartment for luggage and personal items.
Your winter sports equipment will be stored separately during the trip and is securely stowed away. This gives you more room to move around in the seating, reclining, or sleeping cars and makes traveling together even more enjoyable, especially for groups.
