    Hi,

    We’re a family of 4 (2+2).
    We’ll be traveling by car.
    In order to understand if it’s worth buying this card, I need a detailed list of which Cable cars, Gondolas, mountain trains etc. the card is valid for use.
    Where can I find such a list?

    Many Thanks,
    Sharon.

    Hello Sharon,

    All information about the Swiss Half Fare Card, as well as a downloadable overview of the network on which this Pass is valid, can be found on the Swiss Half Fare Card page of this website.

    And the short answer is basically everywhere. There are a few privately owned lifts (such as Isenfluh to Sulwald) that don’t take any cards but these are far off the beaten paths. And you could probably count the total number of those on one hand.

    The nice thing about the HFC is that it is simple. No figuring out how many travel days you can use it, no figuring out what it’s good for, no figuring out whether you get 25% or 50% off.
