If you only have six days I’d recommend spending time outside of cities and in the mountains (e.g. Interlaken, zermatt). That’s where Switzerland really shines. Or fly into a city, spend a day and take the train to a mountain town and then spend another day in the city before your flight out.
Thank you for your suggestion! Interlaken seems like a good option besides big cities that I mentioned. As for Zermatt, given that it's a ski resort, I don't think October is the right time to go there (maybe that's my misconception). And I'm not planning to be so active on the trip, as I'll be backpacking alone.
If you want two different Switzerlands, go to Geneva and Zurich.
Take a train thru the Alps
Sounds wonderful, thank you!
