Next two
days, we scoured Interlaken; or should I say Switzerland. Our hosts were kind
enough to provide us a local transport pass. (tourists- focus only on the rail
pass, don’t get conned into pre-book local transport passes remotely through
your devious agents - almost all hotels/ Air BnB will provide this free of
cost.). They say to see Switzerland, flock to the trains. Right they are; for
we North, South East or West. You can get anywhere to anywhere in a couple of
hours.
Touristy
pressure means that you will have to go to either to Jungfrau or Mount Titlis
are a must. So off we went to Mt. Titlis.
It is a
picturesque ride in the train, with lake Breine and lake Lucerne (try to camp
here; as against more expensive and commercialized Interlaken).
At
Interlaken - not to be missed: the rail up to the top
Our
recommendations:
- Harder Klum:
The affordance and convenient ride on an aging Funicular (gear
train) is a great experience in itself. The ascent is startling and the fact
that this simplistic machine does it many a jerks may get you anxious enough.
The view from the top is something to die for. Pictures say better.
- Any small town outside Interlaken
The lake is a good sight; but we fail to see the charm (and expense)
of Interlaken. Should one rather fan out to the surrounding villages? Cleaner,
cheaper? Any small village Lake Breinz, Sarnersee, Lucerne? If anyone is up for
the adventure.
