Switzerland in Oct 2022, Zurich as homebase
-
Hello all, I love this forum.
We are travelling to Switzerland in mid October. We were planning on making Zurich our home base and want to see these places. I first thought one day at each place. My wife wants to take the train daily to visit these towns. I am wondering if we could combine some as some towns may not have as much to see. This was our Plan. I had booked all nights in Zurich to avoid moving luggage place to place and it seems that Switzerland is small and travel by train back and forth to Zurich may not be to bad. Still wondering and may be overlapping some travel?
Day1 Arrive in Zurich early am and see the city and maybe Rhine Falls
Day2-Travel to Bern via train, see the city maybe continue to Zermott? Back to Zurich evening
Day3-Travel to Lucerne and sightsee, back to Zurich evening
Day4-Travel to Interlaken and Grindelwald, and Lauterbrunnen-sightsee -Back to Zurich in the evening-having considered overnighting in this area as it seems there is a lot to see, also considering St Beatus Caves-30 minutes via boat, up a steep hill
3 castles in Thun -30 minutes by train or can go by boat tour and journey to Jungfraujoch.
Day5-Basel via train, back to Zurich
Day6-Zermatt via train, also do part of Glacier Express up the valley from Visp, or ride the Gornergrat Train
Day7-moving on to Spain
Thank you for any thoughts you can provide! Appreciate everyone!
