Thank you so much for the wonderful website and forum. I am very impressed with the level of detail here!

I am in the midst of planning a trip to Switzerland with my 10 year old daughter starting July 6 through July 20. We are dropping my older girl to Versoix on July 6 and then heading directly to Montreux.I would love some input into my itinerary which is a work in progress: I am thinking that I booked too many days in Ascona and should add on a day in Luzern or Wengen, or perhaps head to Bern before returning to Versoix (Geneva). I am limiting the number of bases to 5 so as not to lose too many days to travel. Would love to maximize the train travel enjoyment moving from base to base.

Saturday, July 6: Train Geneva to Montreux, walk the promenade, see the castle, jazz

Sunday, July 7: Day trip to Rochers-de-Naye

Monday, July 8: Day trip to Gruyers

Tuesday, July 9: Train to Zermatt

Wednesday, July 10: Zermatt, ski, tubing

Thursday, July 11: Train to Ascona via Locarno, relax by lake

Friday, July 12: Ascona visit Falconaria , Lido Locarno, Visconteo Castle, Ghisla Art Collection

Saturday, July 13: Ascona boating on lake

Sunday, July 14: Train to Luzern, Explore Old Town Lucerne, panoramic art, Lion Monument, Chapel Bridge, Glacier Garden, Musegg Wall, old town

Monday, July 15: Mt Pilatus golden round trip

Tuesday, July 16: Mt. Titlus, Cliff Walk, Titlus Rotair, Glacier Cave

Depart Luzern and train to Wengen

Wednesday, July 17: Wengen: Jungfrau

Thursday, July 18: Schilthorn / Grindelwald

Friday, July 19: Depart Wengen and train to Versoix

Hello LaurelMere,

Nice to hear you and your daughter(s) are coming to explore Switzerland.

To be honest I think your itinerary looks quite perfect, do-and enjoyable! If you’d prefer to spend less days in Ascona and more in another region is entirely up to you, both makes sense and you’ll find enough fun things to do in any location.

In order to find out about detailed travelling times and connections use the SBB timetable, make sure you read how it works, it’s an invaluable tool for planning.
