Besides the well known "Glacier
Express" between Zermatt and St. Moritz, there is a very scenic
stretch of railroad that offers you even more and more exciting
views on a fantastic journey taking you from the Alpine valley of
the Rhine in Chur up to the picturesque Engadine mountain valley,
then on a pass peaking at 2300 m (7700 ft.) and on a steep ride
down in the warm Italian valley of Valtellina, known for its gorgeous
wines.
The starting point is in Chur (the trip from Zurich to there is
also beautiful). You can either try the one-day-trip giving you
just the time for lunch at your final destination Tirano, or spend
a night there or in Pontresina in Engadine, which is also nice. |
