Share tips on a European rail journey – you could win at £200 holiday voucher

Nothing beats the romance of a great rail trip, whether you’re gazing out at spectacular scenery you’d miss from the road, or being lulled to sleep by the gentle rock of a sleeper train. We want to hear about your favourite train trips in Europe. It might just be a short but stunning coastal hop in France, or perhaps an epic mountain climb in Switzerland, or a picturesque intercity route. Tell us what it is and why it’s special – and you could win a voucher towards a holiday.

If you have a relevant photo, do send it in – but it’s your words that will be judged for the competition.

The best tip of the week, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet, will win a £200 voucher to stay at a Coolstays property – the company has more than 3,000 worldwide. The best tips will appear in the Guardian Travel section and website.

We’re sorry, but for legal reasons you must be a UK resident to enter this competition.

The competition closes on 27 February at 9am GMT
