Overview

This full-day journey combines one of Switzerland’s most scenic train routes with a high-mountain experience in the Graubünden Alps.

The tour begins with travel to Brig, where the Glacier Express continues through the heart of the Alps toward Chur. Along the way, enjoy panoramic views of the Rhône Valley, the high landscapes of the Oberalp Pass, and the dramatic Rhine Gorge, often called the “Swiss Grand Canyon.”

After arriving in Chur, the journey continues by bus to the LAAX mountain region. Modern cable cars provide easy access to high-altitude viewpoints such as Crap Sogn Gion, offering wide panoramas of surrounding peaks and valleys.

With time to enjoy the mountain atmosphere before returning to Chur and onward to Zurich, this tour combines iconic rail scenery with a memorable Alpine summit experience.

Bernina Express

The Glacier Express is one of Switzerland’s most famous scenic rail journeys, known for its panoramic views and relaxed pace through the heart of the Alps. Between Brig and Chur, the train climbs from the Rhône Valley to the high Alpine landscapes of the Oberalp Pass, the highest point of the route at 2,033 meters. Along the way, passengers enjoy views of traditional mountain villages, forests, and wide alpine valleys. One of the highlights is the Rhine Gorge, often called the “Swiss Grand Canyon,” where the river has carved dramatic cliffs through the landscape. The journey also showcases impressive engineering, including spiral tunnels and the iconic Landwasser Viaduct, making it a perfect combination of nature and technical achievement.

Laax

  • 3h
The LAAX mountain region offers easy access to spectacular high-Alpine scenery above the villages of Flims and Laax. Modern cable cars carry visitors quickly to panoramic viewpoints such as Crap Sogn Gion at 2,228 meters, where wide views open across the surrounding peaks and valleys of the Graubünden Alps. The landscape here reflects classic mountain terrain shaped by glaciers, with open slopes, rocky ridges, and distant snow-covered summits. Higher lifts reach the Vorab Glacier, where snow and ice remain even in warmer seasons. Panoramic terraces, short walking paths, and mountain restaurants allow visitors to enjoy the fresh air and scenery comfortably, offering a memorable high-altitude experience without strenuous hiking.
