Traveling aboard a red train immersed in a magical setting is the dream of all children and... their parents! The Bernina Express, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, offers a unique experience, which combines the charm of a train journey with the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss and Italian Alps.
A spectacular route: from Tirano to St. Moritz through pristine landscapes.
For over 100 years, every day, at all hours and in all weather conditions, the Bernina Express has traveled the route from Tirano, in the province of Sondrio, to St. Moritz, in Switzerland. During the 3-hour journey, it will be impossible to get bored, enraptured by the authentic beauty of the landscape: green pastures, alpine lakes, small villages nestled in the rock, glaciers, helical viaducts and incredible climbs.
The train that climbs mountains: a masterpiece of civil engineering
The Bernina Express is also known as the train that "climbs mountains", as it tackles slopes of 70 per thousand up to 2253 meters above sea level, the highest point ever reached by a train in Europe. Traveling aboard this masterpiece of civil engineering is like watching a theatrical performance, where nature is the true protagonist. An emotion to experience at least once in your life!

Bernina Express offers a wide range of options: a day trip or a weekend combined with tours of nearby attractions. Choose the option that best suits your needs and get ready to experience an unforgettable adventure with the whole family.
Valtellina: a treasure to discover beyond the Bernina Express
Once you return to Tirano, if you have the chance, we recommend you visit the wonders of Valtellina, the area located in the north of Lombardy and bordering the Swiss canton of Grisons. A land known above all for the ski resorts of Bormio and Livigno, where nature, sports, wellness, culture and good wine reign supreme!
