Board in Zurich and settle into panoramic windows, as you skirt Lake Zurich’s shimmering shoreline, the cityscape giving way to rolling vineyards and emerald forests. The train then climbs into the Bernese Oberland, where snow-capped peaks pierce the sky and the valley villages beckon. Keep your camera ready for a quick pause in Brienz to admire local woodcarvings or at the cascading Giessbach Falls, then sip a creamy hot chocolate in one of the vintage dining cars while grazing cows dot the meadows beyond.
Mid-journey, pause in Bern’s medieval Old Town to wander cobblestone streets and soak up centuries of history, or stretch your legs at Thun’s romantic lakeside castle. From there, the final leg follows the turquoise waters of Lakes Thun and Brienz before rolling into Interlaken, nestled under the watchful Jungfrau. Whether you head straight for a sunrise paddle or fancy chasing some adrenaline with a paragliding drop, this route’s Swiss precision, comfort and unbeatable views make every moment a discovery.
