Excursions 
Passengers really do come first here! Travel in the VIP seats above the
driver's cab on the GoldenPass SuperPanoramic train from Montreux to
Zweisimmen, and you'll feel like you are flying! All who wind their way
through the Swiss Alp past world-famous Gstaad on the world's first
panorama train will enjoy the stunning views of mountain lakes, 4,000m
summits and continuously changing landscapes.
Travel the nine hours from Lake Geneva to Lake Constance on at least 5
different trains - the Brünig Railway, a narrow-gauge railway inching
its way cog by cog up over the 1,002m high Brünig Pass, or on the
South-East Railway, travelling leisurely up and down between Lucerne
and Lake Constance.
The ultimate experience for railway enthusiasts.
