Planning a Trip

Getting There

Some of the local trains running between Zurich and Lugano or Locarno in Switzerland's deep south stop in Brunnen, although others require changes in such towns as Goschenen. Call tel. 0900/300-300 for rail schedules.

A mini-armada of buses commutes dozens of times every day from Schwyz to both the waterfront and the railroad station at Brunnen, requiring only about 12 minutes for the one-way passage. Other buses travel from Brunnen to the beginning of the cable car that ascends to Morschach. For bus schedules and information, call tel. 041/390-11-33.

Several lake steamers depart from the quays of Lucerne for Brunnen throughout the day, with more frequent service scheduled during midsummer. Travel time from Lucerne to Brunnen ranges from 2 to 2 1/2 hours. For more information, call tel. 041/367-67-67.

From Lucerne, drive to the resorts of Weggis and Vitznau, then continue southeast along Route 2b until you reach Brunnen.
