Join us on one of the most scenic journeys in the world Golden Pass in Switzerland, stretching from Montreux on Lake Geneva, via river Sarine/Sanne valley up to the jetset ski resort of Gstaad. From Gstaad route takes us down the river Simme Valley (Simmental) via Zweisimmen (breakofgauge border between MOB and BLS railway networks) reaching the Lake Thun (Thunersee) at Spiez. From Spiez we will follow the southern shores of Lake Thun up to Interlaken. Golder Pass route then continues via Zentralbahn railway along the the north shore of Brienz Lake (Brienzersee) lake and over Brünig Pass to reach its end at Lucerne.

A brandnew Golden Pass Express (GPX) trains and service was introduced in December 2022, featuring unique Alstom/Stadler gauge changing trains (between 1000mm narrowgauge and 1435mm standard gauge), though some issues with the system are still being resolved before trains will be able to do a seamless Montreux to Interlaken journey.

In this second part, we descend from Zweisimmen and breakof gauge from narrowgauge network of MOB railway, following the BLS AG Spiez–Zweisimmen railway line along the Simme river first north until Oberwil and then turning east through the Simmental valley to reach major railway junction of Spiez, where we briefly join with the Lötschberg railway coming north from Thun and continuing south before turning east on BLS Lake Thun railway line (Thunerseebahn) along the south shore of late Thun to finally reach Interlaken.
