Bern Day 1: London – Interlaken We journey from London to Paris by Eurostar, followed by our onward connection to join the high-speed train to Strasbourg and onward train to Interlaken, Switzerland. We check in at our hotel for a relaxing evening. Day 2: Interlaken – Lucerne via GoldenPass Line – Mount Rigi Today we travel along a section of the GoldenPass Line to Lucerne, where colourful pitched roof buildings perch on the edge of a blue lake, framed by a magnificent mountain range. After some free time we take the train to nearby Alt Goldau and then join the cogwheel railway up Mount Rigi for breathtaking panoramic views across the Alps and of Lake Lucerne below. Day 3: Glacier Express This morning we travel by rail to Chur and join the Glacier Express for a memorable journey along the broad valley before we climb through pasture and woodland. The train then spirals its way towards the Oberalp Pass, the highest point Lucerne NEW of the route at 2,033 metres, before descending to the Rhône valley and stopping at Brig.
