The GoldenPass line, as it’s called, opened in stages between 1901 and 1916, the realisation of a decades-old dream to connect Lake Geneva, Gstaad and the Bernese Oberland by rail. A GoldenPass train by the vineyards of Lac Léman. However, the GoldenPass line doesn’t actually finish here. From Interlaken, passengers can continue to Lucerne, though with a change of train since part of that stretch of the railway is cogwheel. A one-way journey from Montreux to Interlaken costs from CHF53 (£46) in second class.
