Asparagus trip

A journey for all the senses

When spring arrives in the Albula Valley, celebrations also take place on board Rhaetian Railway – culinary, stylish and enjoyable.

On the asparagus trip, you can look forward to an exquisite three-course menu featuring this vegetable of kings served in the Gourmino dining car with a view of the Swiss canton of Graubünden in blossom. Fresh, regional and lovingly prepared – that’s the taste of RhB rail travel.
