Hey community, in September I will travel for the first time with an Interrail global pass from Germany to Switzerland. Does anybody know if I can use my pass or get a discount for the funicular in Lugano to Mount San Salvatore? I saw on their homepage that they grant a discount for the following category:

 

Holders of ½ price, GA or SBB 1-day travel pass commune

 

Thank you 🙏🏻

Hi, with our Pass you can take the Bernina Express train to Tirano and Bernina Express bus to Lugano for a small fee. The Swiss railway offers a 10% discount for their passengers on the funicular.

Hey, 

actually in this case @Nanja is wrong. There is a reduction from Swiss railways which can also be used by interrail pass owners. 
see here: https://www.sbb.ch/de/freizeit-ferien/ideen/angebot.html/tagesausflug/monte-san-salvatore

unfortunately only 10%, but still better than nothing.

Enjoy - the view from up there is amazing.

I was indeed only referring to the '’benefits'’, specifically for Pass holders we have listed. I was not aware of this discount from the Swiss Railways, but good to know! :relaxed:  Thanks for correcting it.
