Description
From Cavaglia you can follow the signposted route, which leads along gravel and asphalt roads, or choose the more technically demanding variant along the railway line and the old path.
On the railway journey from Poschiavo to the Bernina Pass you can get an impression of the pioneering spirit of the people who built this route over 100 years ago. If possible, it is worth taking a seat in an open car.
The flowing descent from the Bernina Pass to Pontresina is the crowning glory of this varied tour. By the way: in God Chapütschöl, Pontresina has taken the opportunity to run the route for the ascent and descent on separate paths. While the downhill trail leads down into the valley over rhythmic waves and fluid local curves, the uphill trail winds its way through the picturesque forest over constant changes of direction and climbs of varying steepness. It is the first uphill trail in the Engadin that has been specifically adapted for uphill riding.

Vor über 100 Jahren ging sie in Betrieb: die Berninalinie. 1910 wurde der direkte Zugbetrieb zwischen St. Moritz und Tirano aufgenommen. 61 Kilometer höchste Baukunst vor der Kulisse des höchsten Bündner Bergs. Dieser besondere Hochgenuss, der am gewaltigen Palü- und Morteratschgletscher vorbeiführt, der südliche Lebenslust und alpine Schönheit vereint, ist im Bernina Express tagtäglich erlebbar. Doch zuweilen stockt einem der Atem ob den exponierten Kurven und dem überwältigenden Bergpanorama.
