Switzerland Rail Pass
We are a family of 5 adults going to Wengen for a week of hiking. Arrive in Zurich and can either train back and forth to Wengen, or I looked and a car and the parking in Lauterbrennen is $500. Should we get a Swiss Pass for the week, or rent the car and just do the Jungfrau pass? Any an all help is so appreciated. Not sure each day yet where we will go, but assume a few trains and cable cars will be necessary the five days we plan on hiking.

The usual answer to this question is to look at the one month Half Price Card costing 120 SF per person, which does what says on all forms of Swiss public transport. Much better than paying for a cat and parking in Lauterbrunnen. You could always do the maths, just put together a spreadsheet of all possibilities for trips.
