From Zurich, take the train to Einsiedeln (about 70 minutes) and then the connecting bus to Weglosen, the base station of the Hoch-Ybrig lifts. A combined ticket covering train, bus, and lift pass can be purchased at Zurich Hauptbahnhof, which simplifies things considerably. By car from Zurich the base station at Weglosen is about 50 minutes via the A3 motorway and then smaller roads through Schwyz and Unteriberg.
There is no road to the resort itself beyond the lift base — all access up the mountain is via cable car or chairlift.
