The train journey between Innsbruck and Verona is one of the most incredible in Europe, but sit on the right of the train (when facing the direction of travel) to see the best of the stunning views.
Though the most fantastic part of the journey is the initial 35 mins between Innsbruck and the border at Brennero.
And as can be seen in that video, the best of the views on this part of the train ride can be seen on the right.Between Brennero and Verona the railway route primarily travels through a massive valley, by the River Adige and on this part of the journey, there are some great views to be had from either side of the train.
