Wanted to know which are the must visit places we can cover in the available time using the pass. Please help us plan our travel so that we utilize our time fully in explorong swiss. Also, it wpuld be helpful if you could let know kid friendly places to visit.

Thanks in advance. Waiting for you reply.

Hello Samika and welcome to MySwissAlps,

Wen you say you have purchased a Swiss Pass I presume you mean a Swiss Travel Pass for 3 days plus a Swiss Family Card to your 7-year old. You do realise you need a Swiss Travel Pass for each adult?

With a Swiss Travel Pass you can travel for free provided it is shown as free on the Area of Validity map ( PDF downloadable from http://www.myswissalps.com/sw isstravelpass/validity).

Search this site for Rigi, Rhine Falls and Schilthorn to give you a start on free excursions.

Hi Samika, and welcome,

Please research our pages on things to do in Lucerne and things to do in Zurich. You can use the Swiss timetable to plan your activities.

That’s a lot to cram into 3 days. You may need to prioritise. Keep an eye on the weather for Jungfraujoch and try to pick the best day for that. Even with STP it is expensive and you don’t want to waste a day studying the inside of some dense clouds.

Schiltorn is a free (with STP) alternative. If you go there a very nice circuit to do is to Grütschalp (cable car), Mürren (cogwheel train), Gimmelwald (cable car), Stechelberg (cable car), Lauterbrunnen (bus). But check http://www.myswissalps.com/fo rum/topic/gondolarail-access-to-mountains-in-aprilmay-2018 for your travel dates.

Schilthorn and Mt. Rigi will be two separate day trips from Lucerne. You can combine Mt. Rigi with Lake Lucerne (http://www.myswissalps.com/ri gi) and from Zurich you can visit the Rhine falls.

In my earlier post I referred to the Swiss timetable. Please use this to calculate total travel time.

Wherr do you think would it be better to stay maxum (2) days in Lucerne or Zurich or any other place, so that we can cover maximum number of places.

Also i see Jungarfrouch as a must visit place in swotzerland..is there any way we can acommadate it?

I would definitely choose Lucerne over Zurich.

Jungfraujoch is a fair bit of traveling from Lucerne (4 hours) as is Schilthorn. If you decide to visit these two mountains (and nothing in the Lucerne area) you should consider staying in Grindelwald, Wengen, Mürren or Lauterbrunnen.
