Could I ask for suggestions on somewhere interesting to break my journey (overnight) between Yorkshire and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, probably July/August time?
I've already travelled the Rhine S of Koblenz, so I'm keen to try a new route across Germany. Not especially bothered by chasing interesting traction, but interesting scenery (beautiful or industrial) is a bonus.
Can cross the channel either by Eurostar or maybe the Harwich Dutch Flyer - the latter would give me an option of the Amsterdam-Berlin service as far as the Hanover area before heading south. I get the impression that N Germany isn't particularly scenic though.
Or maybe take a long way round via Switzerland and Innsbruck? I could get an early train to London, for the 1130-odd Eurostar and connect in Paris for the Basel/Zurich TGV. Bit of a long and mostly boring first day, but not a bad second day by the look of it.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
