This is a very funny and interesting game from my friend Renja, especially if you want to explore Switzerland but you are not completely sure where you wanna go, or you just want to go there wherever the dice takes you. Yes, that's right - a dice.
THINGS THAT YOU NEED
- day ticket that allows you to travel all around Switzerland with any public transport (bus, tram, train, boat)
- timetable
-SBB app
- dice (we had 5 of them. If you are traveling from Zürich HB you need 4 - I'll explain why)
- camera, tons of energy, and good friends ...
THIS IS HOW IT GOES
I suggest starting on the Translation so you can explore further and not just the area where you live. First, you have to find a timetable and count how many stops it has so you know how many dice you need. Next, you have to roll the dice and take the train the number points, which you'll count on the timetable. When you are in the train, open the SBB app or website, enter the end station of the train and find how many stops it has. Throw the dice again and find your first destination. You can then decide what you wanna do there and how many destinations after this one you still want to visit.
OUR TAINGAME
We started at Zürich HB. We knew we wanted to be exploring the whole day so we left already early in the morning. Our first roll took us to Basel, where we explored the city, We took the tram, had a good coffee and after 2h we decided that is time to continue our trip. On the second roll we got Spiez as our next destination. In Spiez we had lunch and continued with a boat to Faulensee - it was the beginning of July so of course, in Faulensee a dip in the water, sunbathing and ice cream were a must! Dice rolled in the grass took us next to Interlaken. We didn't know what to do there and since we were so close to Lauterbrunnen, we tryed our luck and look at that - we were on our way to Lauterbrunnen. This was also our last stop. It was late afternoon and we decided that it's enough for one day. It's Interesting how much you can see in just one day - this is why I'm probably one of many people that loves the Swiss public transportation system.
With love from Switzerland!
