    We need to return to Lugano from Zermatt after our trip from St. Moritz on the Glacier Express. Can anyone suggest the most direct and least timely option?

    Hi Sararn and welcome to MySwissAlps!

    The Swiss railways timetable always gives the most direct route by default: https://www.myswissalp s.com/timetable You are looking at between 4.5 and 5.5 hours.

    At around 5/5.5 hours is going Zermatt to Lugano via Locarno (more scenic and not too much longer than your quickest route).
