Public transport

Thanks to its central location in Europe, Switzerland is served by international trains from over 12 countries. Within Switzerland, intercity trains run directly from Basel and Lucerne to the Jungfrau region. Travelers from Zurich change trains in Bern. The trains run every half hour.

From Interlaken and Lucerne, we comfortably travel on the Zentralbahn panorama trains directly to Meiringen. Several postbus connections are available from Brünig-Hasliberg.

Directions

The fastest way to the Jungfrau region from Basel and Geneva is via Bern. From Zurich, the route via Lucerne and the Brünig Pass is recommended. The pass is open year-round.

From the south, the journey leads via Grimsel or Susten Pass into the Jungfrau region. Both passes are only open in summer. As an alternative, the Simplon Pass with a subsequent car shuttle through the Lötschberg Tunnel is recommended.

Parking

The municipality of Meiringen has 835 public parking spaces in the village center and at the valley station of the Meiringen-Hasliberg cable cars. A large parking garage is located in Hasliberg-Wasserwendi right at the gondola to Käserstatt.
