With the best views at 2,253 metres above sea level
A trip on the highest railway line in the Alps via the roof of Rhaetian Railway, the Ospizio Bernina at 2,253 metres above sea level, is an experience in a class of its own.
The famous Bernina Line has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008. With the Bernina Panorama Winter offer, you can marvel at the enchanting winter landscape through the extra-large windows of the observation-car trains – for a surcharge of just 5 francs. The panoramic cars run in combination with the regional trains from St. Moritz and Tirano. RhB advises you to book well in advance. Anyone who spontaneously decides to take a ride in the panoramic car pays on site with the train crew – providing there are seats available.
Two 2nd class panorama coaches are carried on each of the regional trains. No catering service is included in the offer.
Seat reservations & sales
A mandatory seat reservation of CHF 5.00 per person and route is required to travel in the panoramic car. Seat reservations can be arranged , by telephone on +41 81 288 65 65 and at any staffed railway ticket office in Europe. Book early, spontaneous travellers book on site with the train crew – providing there are seats available.

Due to construction work, the line between Pontresina and Tirano will be closed to rail traffic from Sunday, 19 November to Saturday, 25 November 2023. The Bernina Express will operate as normal between Chur and Pontresina, and rail replacement buses will be used on the closed section.
