Arosa Gourmet Express
Culinary through the evening
A stylish start to the weekend: on Fridays, the Arosa Gourmet Express invites you to take a very special trip
A trip on the Arosa Gourmet Express is a treat for the senses. While indoors you are treated to a seasonal three-course menu, your gaze will be lost in the wildly romantic landscape of the Schanfigg. On its 26-kilometre journey, the train climbs 1,000 metres of altitude and crosses the famous Langwieser Viaduct. The unique ambience of the nostalgic Gourmino dining car will take you back to a different age during the three-hour ride.
