Help with 16 day itinerary
-
Hi,
My friend and I are planning for a 16 day trip to Switzerland in Sep. Appreciate any comments on the itinerary. We are uncertain about arranging the Bernina Express and Glacier Express onto our itinerary. We would like to go for the Bernina Express and thus doesnt want to take the duplicate route on Glacier Express. We are into photography and some trekking. Also appreciate if there are places which should be visited, but have been missed out below.
Day 1-3: Lucern, Mt. Pilatus, Mt. Titlis and paragliding at Engelberg. One night stay at summit of Mt. Pilatus
Day 4 and 5: Travel from Lucern to Pontresina/St. Moritz including day trip on Bernina Express from Pontresina to Triano and back. I’m not sure which is the most scenic part of the Bernina Express? Would it be recommended to stay in Pontresina or St. Moritz?
Day 6: Travel from Pontresina to Chur. Overnight at Chur
Day 7-9: From Chur to Zematt. If weather is good, we will be taking the Glacier Express. If no, we will take the normal train. Would we have to reserve seats on Glacier Express in advance? We should be taking on 15/16 Sep. Any issues with bringing our luggage on Glacier Express? I read that we should not have an issue with luggage in other forums. We intend to do some trekking in Zematt, visit Rothorn valley, black faced sheep and vineyards.
Day 10-12: From Zematt to Montreux. We intend to do trekking (undecided on the trail and suggestions will be appreciated), Chillon Castle and Geneva. Base at Montreux
Day 13 – 14: Grindelwald and Interlaken. Base at Grindelwald
Day 15-16: Zurich. We will stop by Bern on the way from Grindelwald to Zurich. I believe there are lockers at Bern station for us to keep our luggages. Will be flying off on 16th morning
