Experiences
In 2008, UNESCO designated this area as a World Heritage site, and it only takes a few minutes aboard the Bernina Express to fully understand why... The journey itself is an unforgettable experience.
The most beautiful part of the railway line runs from the Swiss village of Poschiavo up to the popular ski resort of St. Moritz. This particular section conjures up strong emotions in the observer, offering magnificent landscapes to passengers through the large panoramic windows of the carriages. The train climbs the mountains along the winding paths of the steep banks until it reaches the foot of the majestic 400-metre Piz Bernina mountain.
