Here is the timetable for public transport on site

The normal route for this day's hike takes you over the summit of the Schwalbenwand and offers no restaurant stop until the early afternoon, so be sure to take enough food and water along with you. You should also keep in mind that this tour takes you up to 2000 meters' elevation over open terrain, so you should undertake this hike only in good weather. The valley route (B) is the alternate choice.
