    You can see the routes covered on the PDF validity map here. https://www.myswissalp s.com/onedaytravelpass /validity

    Solid lines are fully covered. Dashed lines are 50% off with your Swiss Half Fare Card.

    You’ll need to compare if the cost difference is worth it between the 2 passes for the day.

    Just to point out the background reason for the fact that travel to Mürren is free:

    If a town is a ‘working town’ or commune it will generally be accessible free. This is why Wengen, Grindelwald and Mürren are free. Once you get above the main villages mountain railways are more there for tourists so will not be free

    The Lautertbrunnen to Murren section is a two stage trip. The second part is a wonderful little train (some might call it a tram or a trolley) that wanders along towards Murren. The views are magnificent.

    The other option is the cableway and bus via Stechelberg. Different, but also magnificent, scenery from a lower level.

    I did the round trip you plan in 2015 on a wonderful cloudless June day.

    The restaurant at the top of Schilthorn is a wonderful experience and, as I found, not really any more expensive than elsewhere in Switrzerland. But, considering for most, it’s probably a once in a lifetime experience it’s “worth every cent”.

    And don’t forget to say hello to James Bond.

    Enjoy your travels!

    Hi Active Expert,

    There is no discount on the Schilthorn cable car if you only have a Saver Day Pass. You would need a Swiss Half Fare Card for a discount or a Swiss Travel Pass for free traveling. Please see the bold text on http://www.myswissalps.com/on edaytravelpass/details.
