Which is the most scenic train route between Zermatt and Wengen, in late June.
Hi Shirleynovak,
I would recommend the following route:
Wengen – Lauterbrunnen – Interlaken Ost – Spiez – Brig (take the Lötschberger train, direction Domodossola) – Zermatt

Via Kandersteg. You will then travel on the BLS Regio-Express Lötschberger (http://www.myswitzerland.com/en-au/experiences/bls-regioexpress-loetschberger/) train over the traditional, more than 100 year old mountain route, giving you a wonderful view along the impressive peaks and down into the Rhone Valley. The faster more direct but less scenic route between Spiez and Visp includes passage through the lengthy (in distance) but short (in time) Lötschberg Base Tunnel(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lötschberg_Base_Tunnel).

Thank you Anna and Rockoyster for your kind responses! This route is what I was looking for, I had a vague memory of a post weeks ago and I didn’t make a note of it. Your brains are amazing!!!!! And thanks to the whole team for being such a huge help to all of us Swiss dreamers!!
