Summer season aboard
Swiss public transport
Spring is approaching – and with it the much‑anticipated start of the travel season across Switzerland. As days grow longer and landscapes awaken, public transport companies prepare to welcome visitors with a wide range of memorable journeys.
From snow‑capped peaks and sparkling lakes to sweeping alpine panoramas, mountain railways, panoramic trains, boat services and scenic experiences offer reliable, high‑value options for your itineraries. Each season launch restores iconic routes that pair spectacular scenery with the punctuality and integration advantages of Swiss public transport.
Below is an overview of the planned summer season opening dates.
