my train connections are what is stressing me out

Honestly, Switzerland is the one country where I don’t stress about the trains. Once you are there, you will see how easily everything works. If you miss a connection, just take the next.

The cable car from Stechelberg to Murren will make a stop in Gimmelwald where you will just walk over to change cable cars. No need to worry about missing the connection as the cable car will wait for everyone to walk over. It’s just a few steps.

If you take the train from Murren to Lauterbrunnen, the connection from Grutshalp to the cable car down to Lauterbrunnen is also just a few steps. Just follow the people. The cable car will wait for everyone to get on.

It will all make sense once you are there and see how things work. Switzerland has the best public transportation that I have used so far. It really is super easy to use and very efficient. Use the SBB app for the trains which will show you where to stand on the platforms for 1st and 2nd class. There are also signs at the train station.

Here’s what I do: I check everything on the app before I leave. What platform and where I need to stand. Then, when I get to the train station, I double check everything looking at the signs at the station. I have yet to get on a wrong train. :)
