The Bernina Express is one of the world's most spectacular rail journeys, travelling from Chur or St. Moritz across the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Rhaetian Railway to the Italian town of Tirano.

Climbing to 2,253 metres at the Bernina Pass, the train passes sparkling glaciers, deep gorges, dramatic viaducts and mountain lakes before descending through the beautiful Valposchiavo into Italy. Along the way, you'll cross engineering masterpieces including the famous Landwasser Viaduct and the circular Brusio Viaduct, while travelling through one of Europe's most spectacular mountain landscapes.

From snow-covered peaks and pristine Alpine scenery to Mediterranean-style towns and vineyards, the Bernina Express showcases an extraordinary contrast of landscapes in a single day. Relax in the panoramic coaches, enjoy uninterrupted views through the large windows and experience one of Switzerland's most celebrated railway journeys.
