    Hi there,

    We are planning a trip (2 adults) from Engleberg to Murren/Interlakin in mid September and wondering about the quickest and most direct way there by public transport. Does the train go all the way though?

    Many thanks

    Hi Shorecb and welcome to MySwissAlps!

    So are you going all the way to Murren? You can use the Swiss railways timetable to plan trips – it gives you the most direct routing by default. You’ll need to train to Lucerne, change trains and go on to Interlaken, then a few more connections to end up in Murren. https://www.myswissalp s.com/timetable

    The personal timetable option on the SBB website is very helpful and this is a good example of how it can be used.

    A created my own pdf daily timetable (Engelberg to Murren) after reading this post. It took a little more than one minute.

    Using the “whole day” option on the personal timetable you get all possibilities. Essentially there is an hourly service from Engleberg. Check the notes because some services might not operate every day.

    Three or four changes of train are required

    The trains are:

    Engelberg – Luzern: Zentralbahn (ZB) railway narrow gauge train (red and white livery )

    Luzern – Interlaken: ZB narrow gauge train branded ‘Luzern – Interlaken Express’

    Interlaken – Lauterbrunnen: narrow gauge train (BOB railway – Blue and yellow livery)

    Lauterbrunnen – Grutschalp (cable car) BLM railway

    Grutschalp – Mürren narrow gauge train (BLM railway – brown livery)
