Hello, 2 questions
We want to travel on the train from Lucerne to Meiringen on a afternoon.
We are planning on doing the Aare gorge and head up to the Reichenbach falls.
Should we start from the falls and hike down to the gorge? do the two connect? I read somewhere about hiking the gorge and the taking a train up to hike the falls, is this correct? How much time should I allow? Also we are hoping not to have to bring hiking shoes.
Just because we are trying to keep packing down as we will be hoping on a river cruise later in the trip. Do you think tenis shoes would be okay? the gorge part looked as if we are on decking most of the way. Second question, we are in Basel for the day before our cruise. After the town tour I was thinking of us heading to the gardens of basel in the afternoon. What train would we take and what good bakeries should we not miss. Thank you for your input
