[🇨🇭A one-day self-driving guide to Switzerland] Lucerne→Interlaken→Grindelwald: The scenery is more spectacular than taking the Jungfrau Railway! 🚗🏔️

If you only have two days and one night in Switzerland, I believe this guide written after personal experience can definitely help you🤓 ### 📍**Highlights** Tour three classic towns in one day, with lake and mountain scenery + fairy-tale town + snow-capped mountain panorama all at once!

🅿️ **Parking**: Parking fees in the town center are high, so it is recommended to choose a P+R parking lot in the suburbs to transfer to the bus. ⏰ **Time management**: The mountain road in Grindelwald is dark after sunset, so it is recommended to return before 19:00. --- 🔥**Why do you recommend this route? ** Experience the best of Switzerland in one day: Lucerne's cultural heritage, Interlaken's adventurous spirit, Grindelwald's stunning scenery, and stop at hidden mountain lakes as you wish! 🚗💨 #Swiss Driving Guide #Alps Classic Route #Ctrip Traveler #lucerne #interlaken #grindelwald #Swiss Travel
