We visited Interlaken as part of a two-month driving trip in Europe in 2023.
We believe that Interlaken is one of the most beautiful parts of Switzerland, offering charming Swiss villages, lakes, mountains and fabulous walking trails.
A Train Journey on the Golden Pass Line: Montreux to Lucerne
After a short stay in Paris we wanted to make our way across to Venice via Switzerland and enjoy the scenery along the way.
Our ‘accommodation guru’ came up with a great plan. We would travel by train from Paris to Montreux (on Lake Geneva) then take the Golden Pass Line through to Lucerne where we would spend two nights and one day, before continuing by train onto Venice.
The Golden Pass Line is a spectacular rail trip with views of Swiss villages, rivers, lakes, forests and mountains. Because of the changes in rail gauge along the route, the Golden Pass Line involves taking three different trains.
In January 2010 we spent two nights and one day in Lucerne in mid-winter on our way between Paris and Venice.
