    We are booked on the Glacier Express from St. Moritz to Brig on 26 May and will arrive in Brig at 15:40. We have seat reservations for the Glacier Express. We have a Swiss rail pass – 2nd class and will be traveling with our luggage.

    We are unsure about which trains to take from Brig to Mürren.

    • I believe we take a train from Brig to Spiez
    • then change at Spiez to a train for Interlaken Ost?
    • At Interlaken we can get a train to Lauterbrunnen and from Lauterbrunnen get up to Murren (not certain – is this a cable car ?).

    Can anyone verify this and tell me which train schedules to consult? Thank you so much for any information you might provide. Sandra Loman, Madison, Wisconsin, USA

    Hi Sandra, and welcome to MySwissAlps,

    The route you described is correct and it is all by train. The Swiss railways timetable is a handy tool for planning all your trips: http://www.myswissalps.com/ti metable.

    Hi Sandra,

    >> At Interlaken we can get a train to Lauterbrunnen and from Lauterbrunnen get up to Murren (not certain – is this a cable car ?).

    There are two routes from Lauterbrunnen to Mürren. The timetable will suggest the fastest one for your particular date and time.

    Route 1

    • Cable car Lauterbrunnen to Grütschalp
    • Train Grütschalp to Mürren

    Route 2

    • Bus Lauterbrunnen to Stechelberg
    • Cable car Stechelberg to Mürren via Gimmelwald
