G2taf is planning a trip from Zurich to Grindelwald and needs to know the train ticket prices, as their Jungfrau pass does not cover this route. They're looking for the best options to get there affordably.
Key takeaways:
Use the SBB timetable to find train prices and book tickets; a single journey from Zurich to Grindelwald costs around CHF 81.20.
Consider getting the Saver Day Pass for cheaper travel options; buying tickets early helps reduce costs.
HappyRail is a trustworthy site to purchase tickets, and they offer a pre-booking service for the Saver Day Pass.

Hi G2taf,
You can use the SBB timetable to find ticket prices. To see the price for a trip, click the red ticket button for your preferred travel option. Note that the timetable displays 50% discounted fares by default. More details on using the timetable here: http://www.myswissalps.com/timetable
I did a quick check. A single journey based on full fare from Zurich Airport to Grindelwald is CHF72.60, from Zurich Main Station CHF81.20. As an alternative, try get one of the Saver Day Passes. The earlier you buy, the cheaper the price. Details here: http://www.myswissalps.com/saverdaypass

Anna

Hi Anne! Yes, HappyRail is certainly a reliable partner. Here’s a direct link to their Saver Day Pass page: https://www.happyrail.com/en/pass/europe/switzerland/swiss-saver-day-pass. They offer a pre-booking service, meaning you can order your Saver Day Passes well in advance for the maximum price, and then be refunded for the price difference once HappyRail actually books the passes 60 days prior to your trip. It’s explained at their page and in the retailer information at http://www.myswissalps.com/saverdaypass/price.
