Night trains from Hamburg

20 destinations overnight 6 countries 4 stations

Hamburg is one of the most important night train hubs in northern Germany. Direct connections run from here to destinations including Zurich, Vienna, Innsbruck, Stockholm, Paris and Brussels. This makes Hamburg useful both for journeys to the Alps and southern Germany and for international night train travel to Scandinavia, France, Belgium and Switzerland.

The city is especially practical because several stations can be relevant for night train travel. Many night trains depart from or stop at Hamburg Hauptbahnhof, but depending on the connection, Hamburg-Altona, Hamburg-Dammtor or Hamburg-Harburg may also be important. Before travelling, it is worth checking the exact station carefully, especially when changing trains within the city.

For travellers from northern Germany, Hamburg is often the central gateway to the European night train network. The city brings together classic Nightjet services, private operators such as European Sleeper and Scandinavian night train connections, making it a strong starting point for longer overnight rail journeys.
