91 tunnels and across the Oberalp Pass at 2’033 m. Travel in

comfort through the unspoilt natural beauty of a landscape rich

in ancient, fragrant mountain forests, peaceful Alpine meadows,

rushing mountain streams and mountain valleys, soaked in

tradition and centuries-old culture. Overnight in St. Moritz.

Today you travel with the Bernina Express of the Rhaetian

Railway along the UNESCO World Heritage route. Enjoy an

the mountains down to the swaying palms of the Ticino and Italy.

way! The Bernina Express train takes you to Tirano where you
