Monday 19 September HyperTravel Swiss Travel Pass App
The Riffelalp closed for the summer season on Monday 19 September, so I took the Glacier Express to Andermatt, and then onwards, to cover the most area in one day ultimately ending up in Lauterbrunnen.My objectives were to see the alps in Andermatt, a lake cruise up through Lake Lucerne, then train over to the Lauterbrunnen valley.Here is my Swiss Travel Pass journey:Zermatt to Fleulen via Andermatt and Glacier Express: rail is covered by fist class Swiss Pass, but need to pay 49 CHF for a seat reservation. All food and drink is optional, and breakfast or lunch needs to be purchased in advance, unless you want to select from a limited onboard menu. These Glacier Express rail trips are spectacular.Zermatt: 8:52 am boarded the Glacier Express for seat 34 Tickets checked w/in 45 minute of start. Was facing backwards to route of travel, which was not the greatest.Had a Green tea for around 3.50 CHF.Andermatt: 11:43 am then took 11:50 am R44 train toGoshenen: 12:09 pm.Fleulen: 12:43 pm arrived for boat to journey on the lake. For certain hours of the day, the boat leaves every hour.Boat: 1:00 pm departure for mulitple stops along the lake as it journies ultimately to Lucerne bahn quay see (lake).Bauen: One of my favorite stops, and a revisit point at the base of a mountain and on the lake.Brunnen: it's a good staging area for electric bike to explore the area.Weggis: 15:05 for a lunch break at Olive Restaurant, who has great pizza.16:05 Paddlewheeler to Luzern.
