German Rail Pass

I have plan travel around Germany by German Rail Pass . But when I check on DB website , There is train “ EC or Eurocity” run in Germany such as from Mainz Hbf to Koln Hbf . I am not sure that German Rail Pass can use for train “EC” or not. Any one please let me know

Unfortunately Deutsche Bahn website doesn%26#39;t give you much info. I%26#39;d recommend to just get your ticket when you arrive. ICE trains ONLY run through major/ large cities, so depending on which one you%26#39;re visiting you will have to get appropriate ticket. I moved here from Germany in 2001 and heard that they have expanded their routes. ICE is nice and fast-but a bit more pricey. We%26#39;re going there for X-mas. Cheaper to buy Wochenende (weekend pass) ticket for 37 euro and travel accross the whole country on it. Once again, depends on time of your stay. Best would be to consult right at the window when you buy. They dont require sit reservations, you dont have to worry about that!

Good luck and have safe trip! :)

EC (EuroCity) is the same asIC( InterCity) but a train that originates or ends in another country. Any ticket that is valid on ICE trains is also valid on IC and EC trains.

EC trains are covered. 99,9% of all trains in Germany are covered by a German Rail Pass.
