My Swiss Rail itinerary was as follows
Day 1 :Flew in to Geneva Airport
Geneva to Visp - Visp to Brig - Brig to Zermatt to Hotel Capricorn dumped Bag
Back to station took last train of Day up to Gornergrat as its at a reduced rate.
Day 2 : Zermatt down to Brig - Brig to Domodossola- Domodossola to Locarno Fart on The Centovalli- Locarno to Gubiasco- Gubiasco to Lugano to Hotel Nassa Garni
Day 3 : We could not book on to Bus to Tirano so to link over to The Bernina we : Train Lugano to Bellinzona - Bellinzona to Thusis by Bus - Thusis to Reichenau Tamins on Train stopped in Reichenau for Lunch - Re joined The Bernina with train up to Samedan changed then got to Pontresina up to Hotel Steinbock dumped bags back down to train station to go South to Ospizio Bernina then went for walk along to Alp Grum , re joined Bernina North to Pontresina end of Day 3
Day 4 : Pontresina to Samedan - Samedan to Reichenau Tamins we could not get off here as train doors were broke and would not open so we continued to Chur , had lunch
Chur to Disentis / Muster - Disentis / Muster to Andermatt - Andermatt to Goschenen - Goschenen to Erstfeld - Erstfeld to Brunnen - Brunnen to Vitznau on Bus to Hotel See und Seminar dumped bags
in to Vitznau and then on cog rail up to Mount Rigi back down to Hotel end of Day 4.
Day5: Down to Ferry Point at Vitznau Boat to Beckenreid then Bus to Stans then Train to Hegiswil and Alpnachstad. The earlier Bus passed through The Pilatus Aircraft Site.
At Alpnachstad crossed road and got on cog rail to Pilatus Kulm cable to Frankmuntegg and cable to Kriens then local Bus back to Luzern went for bite to eat then Train to Interlaken then Train to Lauterbunnen then cable car up to Grutschalp then Train to Murrnen to our next Hotel Jungfrau Murren. Dumped bags then another small cable ride up to Allmendhubel to walk back down to our Hotel end of Day 5.
Day 6 :Got small cable ride down to Gimmelwald then walked through valley to Lauterbrunnen and got train up to Wengen then changed on to cable to Mannlichen then cable to Grindelwald from here we Train back to Interlaken to get on Train up to Schynige Platte then back down and back to Hotel in Murren
Day 7 : was spent local around Schilthorn Allmendhubel and Stechelberg :
Day 8 :Murren to Grutschalp on train back down to Lauterbrunnen on cable then train back to Interlaken then train to Zweissimen changed on to Golden Line over to Montreux we then went and got lunch after it was Ferry crossing Montreux to Geneva then back to Airport for flight home.
Quite Full on but we wanted to squeeze as much value out of the 8 Day Rail Pass
The Pass was CHF 376 .We got 50% off Wengen to Grindelwald Grund via Mannlichen so this was CHF 26.50 . We got up Mt Rigi and Mt Pilatus with Swiss Pass but this has now changed up Mt Pilatus. All The other local cable car journeys in and around Jungfrau were in with the pass. All Bus and Ferry journeys were in with the Pass.
I think we had to pay to get up to Wengen but i cant recall , i have a receipt for 64 EUR ! We could not go all way to top at Jungfraujoch as it was about £90 Sso we gave up on that .
Hope it gives ideas and inspiration to others , this was done in Sept 2019 Thanks from Chris
