With so many train and cable car rides included in the Berner Oberland pass, we will need to prioritize. Which ones do you most recommend?

How many people are “we”? Are you interested in any hiking, or just sightseeing?

If I had the Berner Oberland Pass, I would go up to Mannlichen every day!!

Just two people and mainly asking for the ride itself. I already planned hikes, some of which involved riding various trains/gondola: Schynige Platte, Manlichen, Kleine Sl. etc.

The beauty of the Berner Oberland pass is that you have access to all the different types of mountain transportation. The SBB app does a wonderful job helping you to plot out your adventures and see the various ways you could get where you're going. My family's favorite were the different cable cars and gondolas we took- one from Wengen up to Männlichen and then the one down the other side of the mountain to Grindelwald station and up again to Eigergletscher. On that little adventure we then hiked down to Kleine Scheidegg and took the train back to Wengen! You can mix and match as you wish.
If it rains, the lake trips on Lake Brienz and Lake Thun are included in the Berner Oberland pass. The steamship Lötschberg is very cool if you can line it up!
