Railway enthusiasts and residents of Lower Silesia in Poland are likely familiar with the Euro-Nysa offer, but for those living in other regions, it’s worth highlighting this ticket that allows affordable travel by regional trains and selected buses across the Polish-Czech-German border region.
Euro-Nysa Ticket – Basic Information
The Euro-Nysa Ticket is a network ticket allowing travel within the designated area of the Upper Lusatia and Lower Silesia Transport Association (ZVON) and the Liberec Region in the Czech Republic. It is available in one-day and three-day versions for individuals and groups of 2 to 5 people. During the ticket’s validity, unlimited travel is permitted in the border region at a highly competitive price.
I personally highly recommend this ticket. I traveled through the Euro-Nysa region at a time when there was no surcharge for the Zittau Narrow-Gauge Railway, and it was one of my best journeys. I especially remember the narrow-gauge train ride fondly.
