Hi Annika,
Thank you for your reply.
1. I intend to trek from Murren to Gimmelwald, maybe a picnic on the way. Is that too short a walk? Can you picnic on the trails?
2. Great to know about unlimited stops on each ticket. But for this roundtrip ticket where can I get it from? (schilthorn.ch/en/Angebot/Timetable__Tariffs/Price_roundtriptickets) This roundtrip ticket shows the route from Interlaken - Lauterbrunnen - Grütschalp - Mürren - Schilthorn - Stechelberg - Lauterbrunnen - Interlaken. I will likely trek at Murren to Gimmelwald and back to continue journey to Schilthorn. Is this a recommended route? Read that Murren - Stechelberg route is recommended instead. (www.myswissalps.com/sc hilthorn/gettingthere). Should I get Single Ride Tickets instead? There is possibility of poor weather when going up Schilthorn too. Might be a risk to get the roundtrip tickets right?
3. I am in Switzerland 12th June to 21st June. I should be getting some sort of rail pass, but I do not know which one. I know Swiss Travel Pass is only for restricted days, and I think 15 day pass is really expensive. Any recommendation?
4. I am travelling from Vevey to Interlaken on 19th June. Should I get train tickets for Vevey-Interlaken now? Do you think it will be packed and hard to purchase later on? Actually should I get rail tickets days before travelling or it is safe to get them at the stations?
Sorry for bombarding with queries. First time to Switzerland from Singapore here. It is really confusing how things work for me.
