I confirm that despite Switzerland not being the part of the Schengen treaty, no separate visa for Schengen visa holders is required for a visit of less than 3 months. See the extract from Swiss consulate site (http://www.swiss.org.tw/visa/index.htm) below. BTW, I did travel to Switzerland like this myself in the past.

with a valid Schengen visa

No separate visa for Switzerland is required provided the following conditions are fulfilled:
1) Passport holder must have a valid, unrestricted, single/multi-entry Schengen visa*
2) The trip is intended for either the following purpose:
- tourism
- visit
- business
- medical treatment & cure
- participation in science, cultural, religious or sports activities
- temporary coverage by media
- company training
- transport of goods/persons in or through Switzerland (transit) by a driver of foreign
registered company
3) Max. period of stay: up to 3 months depend on Schengen visa's validity and total stay



In case of a Schengen transit visa (valid for all Schengen states) only transit through
Switzerland is possible (no stay).



In case of a Schengen visa with single entry free entry and stay allowed only if Schengen
visa has not been used yet. It is therefore highly recommended to obtain a multiple entry
Schengen visa.



(*Schengen countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain and Sweden).


Feel free to print out under following link the announcement related to the Swiss visa

No, the Schengen visa does *not* permit entry into Switzerland. You have to get a separate Swiss visa.

Exceptions:
National passport with Schengen Visa of any of the following countries:

* Bahreïn, Qatar, Koweït, Arabie Saoudite, Thaïlande, Emirats arabes unies, (Ordinary, Diplomatic, Service and Special passports)
* Taiwan (Ordinary passports)

YOU CAN TRAVEL TO GENEVA FROM LYON(FRANCE) BY TRAIN WITH A CHENGEN VISA. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GET A SWISS VISA. SWISS,FRANCE ARE PART OF THE CHENGEN COUNTRIES AND A VISA FROM ANY OF THE COUNTRIES TAKES U TO ALL.

You should get a swiss visa. Something similar happened to me and I failed to get swiss visa and they almost sent me back. So save yourself a headache and get a swiss visa. Swisertland is not part of the shagen state and therefore, requires their own visa to get inside their country.
Good luck and have fun in your travel!
