Is there a website that allows me to plan out a route for my EuroRail Pass?

I'm planning on backpacking Europe in the Fall and want to buy a Youth Flexi 10 days in 2 months EuroRail pass but before purchasing, I would like to plan a route so I can estimate how long it will take to get to each city and how long I'd like to stay in each city. Is there a website for that? Any other Europe-trip tips are welcome!!Is there a website that allows me to plan out a route for my EuroRail Pass?
One of the best sites for planning routes is the German train website because you can see schedules throughout most of Europe: http://www.bahn.com/i/view/USA/en/index.鈥?/a>



There's a great site for train travel information here: http://www.seat61.com/ It has links to the various national websites and much more advice on selecting and using railpasses. One thing you should be aware of is that it is almost always cheaper to buy individual tickets than to use a railpass if you're here in Italy.



You might also find this site useful for general information on backpacking here: http://www.backpackeurope.com/ and this one for finding interesting festivals, exhibitions and events in the places you choose to visit: http://www.whatsonwhen.com/sisp/index.ht鈥?/a>Is there a website that allows me to plan out a route for my EuroRail Pass?
raileurope.com will help...just put the origins and destinations into the search, and it will bring up the schedules.
