    I will be arriving in late July. I will be staying in Wengen. Does the Swiss Rail Pass cover the full fare for the cogwheel between Lauterbrunnten and Wengen, or do I need to purchase a separate ticket. I am getting mixed responses on the web. Thank you. Keith.

    Currently on a train pulling into Lauterbrunnen, ready to connect on the cogwheel train to Wengen. All included with a Swiss Travel Pass! Beautiful place!
