    Hello Kumareson,

    Looks feasible to me assuming you have these trip departure times from the SBB Timetable. Is there something specific about your plan that is troubling you?

    How is Gimmewald at this time of year?

    You might want to check the weather forecast (http://www.jungfrau.ch/en-gb/live/weather/#jungf raujoch) and webcam (bit.ly/2pORTKs) before you set off.

    Thanks rockoyster,

    Actually i to the timings of google map schedule. Btw the plan is for June 18. Would the timimgs for the train be very different between google map schedule and the SBB timetable?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Kumareson,

    Google Maps is probably correct…but I would always go by the Swiss railways timetable – it would always be correct and up to date.

    Thanks Lucas,

    I am slowly getting the hang of planning the routes and using the timetable.

    Can I also check is there anything I can do in interlaken( besides the castle visits and cruise on lake Thun and beinz) or Lauterbrunen with half a day.

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Hi,

    Another query on jungfrau. Do we need to do reservation for the train tickets. Or buy realtime based on the weather?

    Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    I would stay in the Lauterbrunnen valley. You can go to Trümmelbach Falls, go to Schynige Platte or hike/walk to Stechelberg

    Hi Kumareson,

    I noticed the 3-hour Lauterbrunnen city tour in your plan. Note that Lauterbrunnen is a small village, not a city. Unless you have a really specific plan, you won’t be able to spend 3 hours in Lauterbrunnen itself. The walk that Lucas mentioned is a good option to spend some more time around the village, and it will get you back to the cable car up to Gimmelwald.
