Bernina Express MilanBernina Express from Milan to Interlaken
How Interlaken fits in
Interlaken lies on Switzerland’s central lines, part of the GoldenPass route — not the Bernina. To link the two you would ride the Bernina Express to Chur, then continue across Switzerland, which is a multi-day journey best planned as part of the Grand Train Tour rather than a day trip from Milan.
What to do from Milan
For a day out from Milan, the Bernina Express to St. Moritz is the realistic option. If Interlaken is your real goal, treat the Bernina as the scenic first stage into Switzerland and book onward trains separately.
