The Bernina Express: A UNESCO World Heritage Route

The Bernina Express train route is celebrated worldwide for its scenic majesty and engineering marvels. Originally constructed between 1908 and 1910 to connect the Swiss resort town of St. Moritz with Tirano in Italy, the Bernina line quickly gained acclaim as Europe’s highest railway crossing, linking remote Alpine communities in a feat of pioneering design.

Protected by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, the line weaves through sweeping alpine vistas, across soaring bridges, and through spiraling tunnels. From ancient glaciers to rugged gorges, every turn reveals nature’s splendor at its finest.

Key Highlights:

  • Spectacular Alpine Views: Towering peaks, lush valleys, and expansive glaciers.
  • Historic Railway: With roots dating back to the early 20th century, this journey embodies century-old Swiss engineering.
