The Schynige Platte railway, which opened in
1893, is one of Switzerland’s pioneering lines.
The cog train climbs at a sedate 12 kph up to
Schynige Platte, passing many panoramic
viewpoints overlooking Lake Thun and Lake
Brienz, where the great Swiss artist Ferdinand
Hodler painted some of his famous landscapes, more than 100 years ago.
