The Bernina Express is a scenic train journey through the Swiss Alps, connecting Chur (or Davos/St. Moritz) in Switzerland to Tirano in Italy. It's renowned for its stunning landscapes, including glaciers, alpine passes, and picturesque villages. The train is generally accessible, with wheelchair spaces available but requires advance booking. Both solo and guided tours are possible, the former offering flexibility and the latter providing deeper insights. It operates year-round, with each season offering a unique perspective, though winter travel may be affected by weather conditions. The cost varies depending on the class and route, but expect to pay a premium for the panoramic views. The entire journey takes approximately 4 hours, but shorter segments can be chosen. Reservations are highly recommended, especially during peak season. Consider booking well in advance.
