I will have 2 short days in Lugano and would like to take a day trip farther into Switzerland. I'm considering the train from Lugano to Lucerne, but would like to hear other ideas.
Thanks!

Not a bad idea. If you get up early enough there is direct i see at 7:43am so you get there in 2 hours.
Do it since it is your first choice (and not a bad one) and if you can get that direct train. But you should say/consider how much is too much for a roundtrip train ticket.

Lucerne is a beautiful town. Easily walked and plenty to enjoy .
Plan it early and enjoy. U will not regret. Of course there are many gorgeous places to visit in Switz . But as a daytrip Lucerne is perfect and not to be missed imo.
