Chur/Davos St Moritz Tirano (Italy)

The Bernina Express, arguably the most scenic rail journey of them all, the Bernina Express travels from towering glaciers to the verdant pine forests of northern Italy. The train climbs up to 2,223m above sea level, making it the highest rail crossing in the Alps, a masterpiece of engineering that earned it UNESCO World Heritage Site status. The most popular stretch between St Moritz and Tirano takes 2½ hours after which you can choose to return to St Moritz or perhaps continue onto Lugano on board the comfortable Bernina Express Bus, taking around 3 hours. Travel is also possible in the opposite direction.
Frequent departures Feb - Nov
