Bus travel in Switzerland with a Eurail Global pass.


Forum|alt.badge.img+3

Have a query on using bus for travelling short distances with the unlimited Global Eurail passes from the railway stations in Switzerland in general and in particular from Val-d'Illiez station to Village Champoussin... distance of 7 kilometers serviced by local Bus Route #81. 

 

We are a family of four (2 adults + 2 children aged 8 & 10 years) and will be staying at Champoussin Ski Resort for about a week and will be frequenting the distance between Val-d'Illiez station and Champoussin village almost everyday for a week. 

I understand Bus travel is NOT included in our Eurail Global pass. So, requesting for information here on the Bus passes and if there is any discount on the Swiss Bus tickets with the Eurail Pass?

 

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Is there a maybe a guest pass that includes the bus? Or is there a ski pass that includes the bus?

No discount.

Val-d'Illiez - Champoussin full-fare return is 15.60 CHF (7.80 CHF half-fare for the children).

For them you could get instead at any counter the Junior Card: 30 CHF for a month.

Champoussin is really in the middle of nowhere (for Swiss standards).
