Switzerland's Iconic Rail Journeys

Experience Switzerland’s spectacular landscapes through some of the world’s most scenic train journeys. Travel past snow-capped mountains, crystal-clear lakes, charming alpine villages and breathtaking valleys while enjoying the comfort and convenience of Switzerland’s renowned rail network. 

Switzerland's iconic routes each tell a different story. The Glacier Express winds slowly between Zermatt and St. Moritz, crossing nearly 300 bridges and 90 tunnels on one of the world's most celebrated panoramic rides. The Bernina Express crosses the high alpine Bernina Pass, threading past glaciers and mountain lakes en route to Tirano in Italy. The GoldenPass Line takes a gentler path through vineyards, lakeshores and rolling countryside, while the Jungfrau Railway climbs dramatically to Jungfraujoch, the highest railway station in Europe. For something truly unique, the Gotthard Panorama Express pairs a boat cruise across Lake Lucerne with a rail journey through historic central Switzerland, ending at Bellinzona's trio of UNESCO-listed castles.

From the Landwasser Viaduct to the Bernina Pass, every route offers a new perspective on Switzerland's lakes, mountains and charming towns, making each journey a highlight of your European holiday.
