Footplate rides -  Riding up-front

The dream of any railway fan: with an expert from our team on hand to help, try out your train-driving skills on the footplate of an RhB locomotive as it runs through the valley of Albulatal or over the highest Alpine rail crossing, the Bernina Line. What could be more magical than standing on the engine footplate as tons of engineered metal make light work of the mountain slopes? Includes a commemorative certificate and photographic record of your trip.

Ideal for: nostalgia fans and bons vivants.

Sightseeing attractions: UNESCO World Heritage route, with the winding tunnels between Bergün and Preda, Solis and the Landwasser Viaduct, Ospizio Bernina, Alp Grüm and the Circular Viaduct at Brusio.
