Need a little help on this one as it seems the best way is to go down through Milan and then back up to Brig. Any suggestions?
Thanks

The alternatives (fully covered by Swiss Travel Pass) are:
- Centovalli Express via Locarno and Domodossola.
- Combo of Gotthard Panorama Express and Glacier Express routes via Göescenen and Andermat
- Gotthard Base Tunnel substitute for GPEX route above
Durations and scenic value vary.
No, the usual ‘tourist’ route from Lugano to the Valais region is Lugano – Bellinzona – Locarno – Centovalli – Domodossola – Brig – Zermatt
Göschenen not Göescenen.
