Using Global pass from Lauterbrunnen to Grutschalp to Murren

Hello all. My wife and I will be going to Murren for 5 days next month. On the 2024 Eurail pass coverage list for Switzerland, the pass now covers the trip to Lauterbrunnen, to Wengen, and to Murren if I read the list correctly. I tried testing out the Rail Planner by adding a journey from Lauterbrunnen to Murren. It let me enter the trip from Lauterbrunnen to Grutschalp on the cable car, but it does not allow me to enter Murren BLM as a destination. I’ve tried this on both the Rail Planner on my mobile app and on my desktop. I had read on the forum a few months ago that the trip, including the narrow gauge train from Grutschalp to Murren, was covered. Is this incorrect? Thanks.

Yes fully valid via Grütschalp.

Rail Planner is picky about station names. Like Gruetschalp you need to enter Muerren BLM... a bit annoying.

Aha, I understand now. Much appreciated.


Hi! I am taking the same trip with the same concern, I would like to ask, did it work?

No separate pass or reservation needed? Just the Eurail pass will cover Interlaken - Lauterbrunnen - Gruetschalp - Murren? 

Just hoping it did indeed work for you, thanks

Yep, just log the trains and hop on board. That’s it.

Note that you’ll have to spell it Muerren or Mürren in Rail Planner to get it to show.
