Oldest Cogwheel Railway experience
#winhkflight #cogwheel #lakebrienz #switzerland
The Brienz Rothorn Bahn is an oldest cogwheel railway in Switzerland, starts from town of Brienz and ascends to the summit of the Rothorn Kulm. The journey takes one hour. Along the journey to the summit of the Rothorn Kulm, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding Alps, such as Tiger, Mönch and Jungfrau peaks, valleys, forests and lakes.
For season 2024, it opens from 8 June to 20 October 2024. The return journey for adult without discount costs is CHF 96 per person. You can either purchase the ticket online or at the station in Brienz. To make sure you able to get a seat, it would be better to purchase the ticket including seat guarantee in advance or be there early to buy it at the station.
I want to travel to Hong Kong to explore the panoramic views of city.

🚂 All Aboard the Brienz Rothorn Bahn 🏔️! Nestled in the heart of Switzerland, this charming cogwheel railway offers an exhilarating journey to the summit of the majestic Brienzer Rothorn. Here are some tips for those planning to visit:
1. 🎫 First things first – Book your tickets in advance! 📢 The demand for these coveted seats is sky-high. Even during the supposed ‘non-peak’ season, like September, they sell like hotcakes! My first time going there, we couldn’t get onto the train as we did not book a seat and the trains are all sold out for the day! Don’t miss out on this extraordinary experience; secure your spot and relish the excitement.
2. 🌄 Top of the world! 🌄 If you dream of spending quality time soaking in the awe-inspiring views at the summit, avoid the last train up. 🚞 Why, you ask? Well, they won’t let you hop off to explore the picturesque surroundings. Make sure you catch an earlier ride, and you’ll have all the time you need to roam freely and capture those stunning memories.
3. As you embark on this alpine adventure, a helpful tip for travelers seeking the most breathtaking vistas: opt for seats nearer to the entrance on your way up. These prime spots ensure uninterrupted views of the pristine Swiss landscapes. 🏞️
4. The Brienz Rothorn Bahn consists of two carriages. To stay dry and comfortable, it’s advisable to avoid the carriage closest to the steam source, as occasional water splashes may occur in an effort to tame the steam’s intensity. 💦
With its vintage charm and awe-inspiring scenery, this Swiss railway promises an unforgettable ride. So, get ready to savor the stunning panoramas and immerse yourself in the beauty of the Brienzer Rothorn! 🏞️🇨🇭
