Hello!

I will be traveling to Switzerland from April 25th to May 3rd. I’m planning on visiting Zurich, Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen, and Bern. I have a few questions:

1. What will the weather be like in these areas in late April/early May?

2. What are some good hiking trails in these areas? How do I get there by train?

3. Are any summer toboggans open in these areas at this time?

4. Should I consider taking day trips to any other areas near the ones I’m visiting?

Thank you for your help!

Hello neegan and welcome to MySwissAlps

1. Nobody can tell. Check again no more than 10 days before.

2. Yes. Of course, Zurich and Bern are cities, but indeed you can walk through the sightseeing areas. Check WHAT TO DO on top of your screen. For trains, etc. click on HOW TO TRAVEL on top of your screen.

3. On Mt Pilatus, near Lucerne (can be reached from Zurich or Interlaken): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwzcn-gdeHc

4. You could, yes.

Enjoy your stay!
