Bern to gruyere

We plan to go gruyere for cheese visit. But not so sure my schedule is it work. Firstly, my plan start from zermatt for 2 nights. 3rd days, we plan to go gruyere. So will overnight at Bern. After visit gruyere, we will back to Bern. I'm understand, we definite not enough time to cover Broc fabrique, chocolate factory. Try to do it again, on next day. After, visit we back to Interlaken.
What you think ?? I feel a bit complicated..n confused. please advise.

We stayed in Bern in April and then drove to Gruyeres on the way to our next destination -- Sierre. We spent a few hours in Gruyere, and felt we saw a lot. Most of our time was spent touring the chateau; we didn't go to Broc, though. Since it's less than an hour drive between Bern and Gruyeres, it would seem you'd have a lot of time for Gruyeres and Broc, although I don't know how long the tour of the chocolate factory takes.

Nigel,

The whole trip, we plan to use train.
Am my route is the shorter way ? From zermatt to bern, train journey take 2hr 17 min. Once we leave the luggage, in Bern. We continue to Gruyere, visit cheese factory. Journey by train another 1hr 50mins. Or we leave the luggage in Gruyere locker station . So i can save the time , straight from zermatt to Gruyere (train take 4hr 22 mins). Please advise.

I am confused. Why do you want to go to Bern? Do you want to visit the sights there or do you only want to use Bern to store your luggage?

Perhaps you need to be clearer on your overall plan. When is your trip? Are you arriving in Switzerland from another country?
