Bernina Express

The Bernina Express in the Montebello Curve in the Upper Engadine
Montebello Curve, Pontresina
A masterpiece of railway engineering: the Bernina and Albulaline has been recognised as part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 2008. The Bernina Express snakes along the highest railway lines in the Alps from Chur or St. Moritz to Tirano – with a bus connection to Lugano. Daredevil climbs and bold viaducts make it an unforgettable journey.
