The gently descending route on the way to Italy leads through orchards, chestnut groves and vineyards. On foot, you almost completely circle the famous spiral viaduct of Brusio. Lago di Poschiavo, the tree-covered steep mountainsides and the Veltlin valley opening up offer striking views.

Directions
Public Transport
Rhaetian Railway
Over 100 years ago, the Bernina line came into operation. The direct train between St. Moritz and Tirano ran for the first time in 1910: 61 kilometres of sophisticated construction engineering through the landscape from which the highest mountain in Graubünden rises. Every day Bernina Express trains offer a one-on-one rail pleasure with nature. The impressive glaciers of Palü and Morteratsch can almost be touched. At the same time, the red train seems to combine the Mediterranean dolce vita with the icy alpine beauty.
