GoldenPass Express
A scenic train from Montreux through Gstaad to Interlaken. Since 2022, it has run without changing trains thanks to variable-gauge bogies, and its large-window carriages offer views of lakes and mountains.
The GoldenPass route combines the narrow-gauge MOB railway with the standard-gauge railway toward Interlaken. Since 2022, the GoldenPass Express has used variable-gauge bogies that change gauge automatically at Zweisimmen. This allows a direct trip of about 3 hours from Montreux to Interlaken. Gstaad is the main stop along the way. To the west, the train passes Château-d'Œx and Rougemont and descends to Lake Geneva. To the east, it follows the Simme Valley to Lake Thun. Prestige first-class seats are higher and have larger windows, and seat reservations are required. Holders of a Swiss Travel Pass can ride for free, though reservations cost extra.
