Lauterbrunnen/Jungfrau itinerary in December
-
Hey MySwiss Alps,
Greetings from NYC. First off, thank you for creating such a great site packed so many tips for travel to Switzerland.
I will be in Switzerland, arriving on the morning of 12/14 and departing on the afternoon of 12/17. I know that it is a quick trip, but we are hoping to get in as much as we can in a short time frame. We would like to see the Christmas markets, but we will not be able to make it to Bern or Basel. From what I’ve read on your site, it looks as though Lucerne may be the best bet? We were initially under the impression that Zurich would have big markets, but I’m now under the impression that’s less the case. Can you confirm?
Our initial itinerary was to stay in Zurich for the first day/night, see the markets and then head down to Lucerne and then onto Laterbrunnen and Jungfrau for the next two days. I’m now thinking we head straight to Lucerne on the train, spend the afternoon/evening at the markets and then take the train south.
With that said, what would you suggest would be the best two day itinerary for this section of the Alps? I know our time is limited, but I’m having a hard time deciphering from the website what we can realistically do in two days (and where we should overnight). Is it to much to see Grindewald, Jungfrau and Lauterbrunnen in those two days? We’d like to see the sights and potentially fit in some sledging while there if we can. I understand the amount of daylight will be working against us, but any suggestions how to navigate the two days would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!
