Hi,
We want to travel from Interlaken to Salzburg In August. I've read the best way to travel is Interlaken - Zurich - Innsbruck - Salzburg, is this true? Are there any shorter routes?

If not, is a night train on this route an option?

All help appreciated,
Thanks,
Alicia

Hi Alicia!

I would recommend this connection:

Interlaken Ost 0830 - 0923 Bern
Bern 0932 - 1028 Zürich HB
Zürich HB 1040 - 1558 Salzburg Hbf

The same connection is also available at 067, 1230, 1430 from Interlaken. There is a Zürich - Salzburg night train as well :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/zurich-vienna-night-train/f1448[/u] but it arrives really early in Salzburg. Parts of the trip are really scenic (ie the Arlbergbahn between Bludenz and Innsbruck) so it is worth going during the day. No reservations required when going during the day, for the night train you need reservations (mentioned in the link).

Hi.
Yes. The train you are taking from Zurich to Salzburg stops in Innsbruck at 14:06h.
