What to expect
Experience the nostalgia of the Belle Epoque era with a ride on the historic cogwheel train to Schynige Platte, a natural balcony that offers breathtaking views of the Bernese Alps. The 50-minute ride itself is an attraction, as the narrow gauge train winds its way up the mountain, offering unparalleled views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau, as well as Lake Thun, Niesen, Stockhorn, and Jura. The train is reminiscent of a bygone era, with wooden benches and conductors in period uniforms. Upon arrival, soak in unforgettable views of the Jungfrau region, and if you walk a little further, you'll be treated to panoramic vistas of Lake Brienz and Lake Thun as well. Hop aboard the cogwheel train and prepare to be transported back in time while surrounded by the natural beauty of the Swiss Alps.

One of the best views of the Swiss mountain! It’s truly breathtaking! The cogwheel train ride was very comfy and enjoyable too! super convenient to use Klook QR code
This ticket is really convenient - we could just use the QR code by klook to enter without redeeming a physical ticket. This place is beautiful. The hike to daube viewpoint is rocky and steep but generally manageable and you can take it slow. it is recommended to go clockwise after you alight from the train aka walk in the opposite direction of the train toward the start point. It would generally be an easier hike up!
nice trip although the train is quite full that we cannot sit together. And it is a pretty that it was too foggy on the mountain than we cannot see the mountains. remember checking weather before you buy and do not purchase too early.
An absolutely breathtaking experience! The train ride up the Alps is stunning, and the place is like on fairytale. A must-visit destination—truly magical from start to finish!
We had a great time. A must do. incredible sights! train was fun - get there early if you are in a group to sit together. expensive at restaurant but as expected. see photos!
easy to use and instant confirmation. I recommend klook to book tour packages like this as a 1 stop shop.
The person checking tickets for the train from Wilderswil to Schynige Platte said it was the first time he had seen the ticket and that he couldn't confirm it, so I couldn't use the ticket and wasted money^^
Easy redemption of vouchers - just present directly to the train conductor at the platform. Beautiful scenery, with different trails to hike. A pleasant excursion which is relatively easy-going.
Breathtaking view on top.. Loving the colourful flowers in the garden 👍🏻
