I'm planing a 10 days InterRail trip in France, and I've summed up all point-to-point trains costs = 200 euro.

In addition there are the international trains to go and come from Amsterdam (my hometown city), approximately 220 euros.

So, total costs would be 420 euros.

A France InterRail card seems not be convenient (319 euros for 8 days trips in a month), unless it covers the trips from and to Amsterdam. Which I suspect it doesn't, or are the international trips partially covered on national ground ?

Also, is there an InterRail pass for France + Benelux ? In that case I could cover the entire trip.

Any tip is welcome.

Have you considered the Belgian Rail-pass or Go-pass? It is a really affordable formula to travel through Belgium. For less then 8 Euro (depends on your age) you can travel through all of Belgium. With this card a Interrail for only France might suffice.

A disadvantage of both passes is that you need to buy them in Belgium at the station

You used to get a discounted ticket to your interrail region as part of your interrail card. Can't say whether that's still the case.

However, your estimate of 220 euros to get to and from France from Amsterdam sounds unlikely. A roundtrip Amsterdam-Paris can be had for as little as 70 euros (http://www.nshispeed.nl/).

Also, at 320 euros for just 8 days, depending on where you plan to go, it sounds like the cost might not justify getting it. But that depends heavily on where you plan to go.
