Best airport to get to Wengen & car or train?
-
Hello,
I’ll be arriving by plane from Barcelona in September on my honeymoon. I have not booked the flights yet so flexible on which airport to fly into but looks like Zurich is the closest but Geneva and Basel have cheaper flights.
I have already booked lodging in Wengen for 6 nights, I’ve been wondering if I should drive or take the train. We’ll have 1 large luggage each (so 2 total) and I have some back issues thus I would like to minimize having to lift the luggage if possible. Looking on sbb.ch, it seems like going from Zurich airport to Wengen would require about 4-6 transfers on train for a 3.5 hour journey which to me sounds like a lot honestly. The thing with driving is I would only have to load the car once vs having to load/unload 4-6 times. Yes, I see I’d have to park in Lauterbrunnen and take the train into Wengen but that’ll be the same either way.
Questions:
1. which airport should I fly into?
2. what would be the best way to get into Wengen?
3. if train to question 2, which pass would be best? In my 6 nights in Wengen, I plan to stay in that area and go on daytrips (haven’t had a chance to plan this out in detail yet)
Thank you!
