1. West Highland Line: Glasgow to Mallaig (Britain)
One of the most scenic train journeys in Europe starts in the UK. Beginning from the former shipyards of the Clyde Estuary, the West Highland Line soon pitches you through wooded glens. Onwards it rides alongside Britain’s most extensive stretch of inland water, Loch Lomond.
The iconic Scottish highland landscape turns barren and boggy around Ardlui. The journey then unfolds into the stark wilderness and beauty of Rannoch Moor.
After passing through the Highland’s largest town, the outdoor activity hub of Fort William, get ready with your camera to snap the Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry Potter films. While passing over the viaduct, marvel at the breathtaking scenery of Loch Shiel and the surrounding mountains.
You’ll wind up at the end of the West Highland Line on the harbour shores of Mallaig. This picturesque seaside town is a jumping-off point to Skye and many others of the Western Isles.

4. Berlin to Prague Line (Germany & Czech Republic)
Two of Europe’s most famous capital cities – Berlin and Prague – are connected by an equally impressive rail route.

However, things start to change once you pass Dresden, and the landscape becomes noticeably more pastoral.

Take a stiff walk from Mr Henderson’s Railway to the white hilltop village of Gaucin on the way from Algeciras to Ronda – Image: Ian Watson
5. Mr Henderson’s Railway: Algeciras to Ronda (Spain)
Built in 1892 to connect the port town of Algeciras with Cordoba, this line takes its name from its financier Sir Alexander Henderson. The British-built train takes you through some stunning, off-the-beaten-track Andalusian scenery – considered a dangerous bandit country when American novelist Truman Capote rode through it.
You’ll pass through 16 tunnels and over 20 bridges and can spy fields of sunflowers, nesting stork colonies and towering limestone peaks policed by eagles, buzzards and vultures.
Highlights include the dramatic hills and densely forested valleys just north of San Pablo on the edge of Alcornocales Natural Park, Europe’s largest cork forest.
Stop off at some of the many tempting trackside dining stops at stations along the route, or if you’re feeling spry, hike 14 kilometres down to the picturesque white hilltop village of Gaucin Pueblo.

The train follows the course of the River Douro upstream, through 20 tunnels and over 30 bridges, with many stations being little more than shelters for local quintas (villas on wine estates).

The spectacular Mala Rijeka Viaduct on the Belgrade-Bar train line is the highest railway bridge in Europe – Image: Halavar
9. Belgrade-Bar Railway: Belgrade to Bar (Serbia & Montenegro)
As you pull away from the Serbian capital, you probably won’t notice you’re on one of Europe’s best-rated scenic train rides until you reach the sloping hills of Uzice.

The stately pace of trains in Romania lends itself perfectly to scenic excursions.

Like the famous Peles Palace, this attractive town is adorned with fairytale buildings.
The train then rolls on through hiking mecca Busteni and the 100-metre-high Predeal Pass. You cross into Transylvania before making the downhill chug to Brasov, a historical hotspot heavy with walled citadels and medieval grandeur.

A train travelling across the longest bridge on the picturesque narrow-gauge railway from Septemvri to Dobrinishte – Image: Bdz43r
11. Septemvri-Dobrinishte Railway: Dobrinishte to Septemvri (Bulgaria)
Bulgaria certainly gives Romania a run for its money in the snail-paced train stakes, but relax – it’s not about the speed; it’s all about the views! And this narrow-gauge line is a bona fide scenic feast.
Setting out from the small ski resort of Dobrinishte (or starting further up the line at Bankso) in the shadow of the Pirin Mountains, the train first creeps beneath the snow-capped Rila Mountains.
It then winds its way through deciduous forests and farmland, past picture-book minarets and the spa town of Velingrad. The train then plunges into the deep Velingrad Gorge before levelling on the Plain of Thrace.

This railway was built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1855 to connect Ireland and the ferry line between Rosslare and Fishguard in Wales. The stretch between Bray and Wicklow hugs the contours of the coast so snugly that new tunnels and viaducts were repeatedly reconfigured.
The line switches from double to single track at Bray Head before looping inland through the wooded foothills of the Wicklow Mountains. It rejoins the coast at Arklow at the mouth of River Avoca, where it crosses the Nineteen Arches Bridge.
The train then powers down through the agricultural landscape of the Bann Valley and the lusher Slaney Valley before finally clattering along the quayside to Rosslare Harbour.
