291 bridges, 91 tunnels, 7 valleys, 1 experience. The Glacier Express
winds its way through the picturesque Swiss Alps, from the Piz Bernina
to the Matterhorn. Starting in St.Moritz, travel along the world's most
beautiful stretch of railway line to Chur, before passing between the
sheer cliffs of the Rhine gorge, Switzerland's very own Grand Canyon.
After crossing the 2,033m high Oberalp pass, the warm sun of Canton
Valais awaits you at the end of the Furka tunnel. Whether admiring the
views while enjoying the wonderful cuisine in the historic restaurant
car, or simply gazing out of the huge windows of the panorama car, the
real icing on the cake is the first glimpse of the famous Matterhorn,
as the world's slowest express pulls into Zermatt.
Switzerland all in one.
