    Hi Jlenseyrow,

    I have moved your thread to the Rail forum because this is not a report about a completed trip. You can best use the Swiss Travel Pass Flex for your most expensive trips, so you can save most. The Schilthorn cable car without the pass is more expensive than the train from Lucerne to Lauterbrunnen, so I would use the pass on day 4.

    Enjoy the trip!

    Your day 1 is the cheapest trip. Don’t use a day off your pass for that.

    From Lauterbrunnen a very nice circuit to do is to Grütschalp (cable car), Mürren (train), Gimmelwald (cable car), Stechelberg (cable car), Lauterbrunnen (bus). From Mürren you can easily visit Schiltorn (don’t miss The Thrill Walk at Birg) and even Allmendhubel if you have time. In between Stechelberg and Lauterbrunnen the bus stops at the Trummelbach Falls. Well worth a look. The entire circuit and side trips are free with the Swiss Travel Pass apart from the Allmendhubel Funicular (50% discount) and the Falls (modest entry fee).
