The Glacier Express
Is this the world’s most beautiful and slowest train journey in the world? Welcome aboard on the Glacier Express which takes you through the Swiss Alps from St Moritz / Davos to Zermatt. At the most beautiful views, the train travels slowly to provide maximum enjoyment for its train travelers.
In eight hours you travel through the world’s most beautiful scenery, looking out and up through panoramic windows. Just sit back, listen to the audio guide if you want, and enjoy the views of cozy alpine villages surrounded by majestic and world-renowned mountain peaks that swish by. The highest station, Oberalp is at 2023 m.a.s.l.
Countless lakes are passed on the Glacier Express
One plateau with countless lakes, 291 bridges and 91 tunnels – the contrasts are many and varied. Always something to discover, always something to be fascinated by. Historic sites on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in Albula / Bernina, and world-renowned hoteliers’ homes pass on the road to Zermatt. Valuable and historic gold grains. In the first class, a three course lunch menu is served on board. Zermatt is surrounded by four of 38 thousanders in the Alps, of which the Matterhorn is probably one of the world’s most famous. It is beautiful in white – beautiful in green. Regardless of time and season – you are enchanted on the entire train journey.
