    After searching high and low. Found out that if i only travel within Jungfrau area is best to use Jungfrau Travel pass.

    here is my plan

    Jungfrau Travel Pass 5days

    Interlaken- Murren day trip (1 H) > stay at Lauterbernn

    Jungrouh day trip and back to Lauterbernn

    Lauterbern explore around the area

    Lauterbern explore around the area

    Lauterbern > interlaken echange– (2H) Geneva Airport <– Does the pass cover this as well??

    Hi Szern9356,

    You can see what the Jungfrau Travel Pass covers here: http://www.myswissalps.com/ju ngfrautravelpass/valid ity – it doesn’t cover anything passed Interlaken essentially.

    Do note that the pass is only available until Oct. 21 http://www.myswissalps.com/ju ngfrautravelpass. If you are traveling after that look at the similar Jungfrau Hiking and Sledging Pass: http://www.myswissalps.com/ju ngfrauhikingsledgingpa ss

    For ideas of what to do in the Jungfrau region have a read through here: http://www.myswissalps.com/ju ngfrauregion/activitie s

    We just returned from our trip to that area and when we were confused by the various passes, a resident of Wengen gave us the following explanation:

    The Swiss Travel Pass covers transportation in areas where people live, but the Jungfraujoch pass applies in areas above that. For example, the Swiss Travel Pass covers transportation from city to city like Geneva to Lauterbrunnen and Lauterbrunnen to Wengen. The Jungfraujoch Pass covers the train from Wengen to Kleine Scheidegg and provides a heavy discount from Kleine Scheidegg to the Jungfraujoch.

    Szern9356, you might investigate the Bernese Oberland Pass to see if it meets your needs.

    Do note not every route is covered 100%. Be sure to read the legend on the PDF map and the list of attractions noted as well.

    October 21 is when the Jungfrau Travel Pass ends this year. 2019 it may vary by a few days – can’t be sure yet. When are you traveling?

    Other passes have different dates if they have summer/winter version. For example, The Regional Pass Bernese Oberland is only available in 2018 for: April 21 to October 31. http://www.myswissalps.com/re gionalpassberneseoberl and
