The UNESCO World Heritage Site and pristine Alpine landscapes within reach: a trip on the Bernina Express is a travel experience in a class of its own.From Chur, the oldest town in Switzerland, the route takes you over 196 bridges and through 55 tunnels – past wild gorges, over the famous Landwasser Viaduct, up to the Bernina Pass, to the glaciers and down to the palm trees in Tirano, Italy. The modern panoramic cars offer first-class travel comfort and make the impressive landscape appear almost within reach. Buy your ticket now and reserve your seat. If you wish, you can also travel with the Bernina Express Bus between Tirano and Lugano.
Note Engadin Ski Marathon (08 March 2026)
Due to the Engadin Ski Marathon, the track between Samedan and Pontresina will be closed to Bernina Express trains 951, 970 and 972 on Sunday, 8 March 2026. Replacement buses are operating on the aforementioned section of the route. Bernina Express trains 952, 975 and 977 are not affected by the line closure and can therefore run according to schedule.
Note: Diversion via Vereina (21–22 March 2026)
Due to construction work at Chur West station, rail traffic will be suspended on Saturday, 21 March and Sunday, 22 March 2026. The Bernina Express will therefore not run through the Albula Valley, but will be diverted via Vereina (Chur – Landquart – Klosters – Vereina Tunnel – Sagliains – Pontresina).
Enjoyment on board the Bernina Express
In addition to the view, food served to passengers at their seats also contributes to a railway experience for all the senses. Enjoy delicious snacks and refreshing drinks served by the catering team.
