I will be hiking mont blanc, most probably whole circuit, n spending a few days in switzerland. Is it worthwhile for me to take glacier or bernina express (as scenery may be similar when i hike) or do i see something different? Or should i go around lake geneva instead

The Glacier and Bernina Expresses won’t get you any different ‘type’ of scenery in terms of snowy Alpine mountains than around Mont Blanc, just a view of a different region’s mountains. The highest peaks in the Swiss Alps are at the western end of the Alpine chain so just visiting Zermatt would get you the the ‘4000’ers

Hello Khawbl,

What a nice hike you’ve planned! Fabulous.

As 1960man says, if you think you might be in need of a change of scenery then the two scenic train trips will not offer lots of variety to what you experience when hiking, apart from the different way of transportation, this is.

In the Lake Geneva Region you could find some different scenery, vineyards and water, e.g.
