Hi Ambrocks, thanks for joining us!
Whether your plans are doable depends a lot on how many hours you are willing to travel with such a young child. Lucerne is a good base to visit the Titlis and Pilatus. A return trip to Jungfraujoch however, requires 9 hours of sitting in trains. The Golden Pass line would require 8 hours. All of this is without any sightseeing, so in reality it will take even more time. I would focus on local sightseeing with a child. There is plenty to do and see: myswissalps.com/ lucerne.
All Golden Pass information is here: myswissalps.com/ goldenpass.

Hi Ambrocks,
The travel times I mentioned earlier are correct. As for Lucerne to Montreux I expect you are looking at the quickest route, not the Golden Pass route. Please check the page I referred to earlier as it explains it all.
As for accommodation: please first pick the town to stay in, then check the hotel & rental sections of the Lucerne and Interlaken pages. Note that apartments are usually rented from Saturday to Saturday only, but there are some exceptions. If you need further suggestions, then please post in the Accommodation forum and include the details request there. Thanks!

Hi Arno ,
Thanks again , I went through the Golden pass link , but didn’t able to find “Time” required for journey , I checked the “GoldenPass.ch" website and found time required is about 2.37 hrs (pic attached) . Thats why I am being confused ,
1- should we take whole route or should we choose one of the route (out of three) , if yes which one is the best .
2- As it is our first time in Swiss , I wanted some suggestion from the forum for trip planing and accommodation , we want to have memorable break .
please advise , should I put my question in different forum !!
Regards

Hi Ambrocks,
Please go to the Route tab of the Golden Pass page I referred to. The timetable section there explains how to find schedules for the correct route. That tab also describes the route so you can select the section of your interest.
Please look here for planning your trip. You can post additional questions here in this thread, and accommodation related questions as explained in my previous post.
