The gently descending route on the way to Italy leads through orchards, chestnut groves and vineyards. On foot, you almost completely circle the famous spiral viaduct of Brusio. Lago di Poschiavo, the tree-covered steep mountainsides and the Veltlin valley opening up offer striking views.

Directions
Public Transport
Rhaetian Railway
More than 100 years ago it went into operation: the Bernina Line. In 1910, direct train service was started between St. Moritz and Tirano. 61 kilometres of the highest architecture against the backdrop of the highest mountain in Graubünden. This special treat, which leads past the mighty Palü and Morteratsch glaciers, which combines southern joie de vivre and alpine beauty, can be experienced every day on the Bernina Express. But sometimes you take your breath away because of the exposed curves and the overwhelming mountain panorama.
