The Albula and Bernina lines between Thusis and Tirano are excellent and technically innovative examples showing how the high alpine landscape was opened up and are among the most spectacular narrow gauge railways in the world. This homepage presents information on «Rhaetian Railway in the Albula/Bernina Landscapes» and on the current progress of the project. ....

The salient feature of the Albula/Bernina landscapes is the Rhaetian Railway. The Albula railway was completed in 1903, the Bernina railway in 1910. The Albula railway was recognised as a masterpiece of engineering from the outset. The Bernina railway (St. Moritz Tirano) immediately became the model for many projects throughout the Alps and the recognised standard for several railways that were built later. Today it holds a unique position worldwide: it is the highest altitude transalpine railway in Europe and one of the steepest adhesion railways in the world. ....

The surrounding landscape is an essential feature of the exceptional importance of the Albula and Bernina line, emphasizing the direct link to the qualitatively unique railway structures as the railway runs through a very varied, rich cultural landscape. The railway engineering structures merge with the exceptional topography in a single spectacular whole. The choice of alignment was motivated by the wish to make the route particularly striking for tourism i.e. to emphasize the attractions of the landscape. The cultural features of past and present thus interact with a natural landscape of an alpine to high alpine character and 1 of spectacular beauty. ....

On 13th June 2007 the governing body, RhB World Heritage Site, was founded. This organizations purpose is to coordinate between the institutions involved in the maintenance and development of the nominated property and on July 7th 2008, the railway was incorporated into the UNESCO list of world heritage sites. ....

  • Switerland has the best train system in the world, by far. And the alps is the most glorious mountain range. Actually in North America only the Canadian rockies and possibly Denali can compare in beauty, as the difference between valley and mountain is much more dramatic than in the Rockies or Sierra Nevada. Mont Blanc , Monte Rosa and Matterhorn isnt that much higher than Mt Elbert, Whitney, Blanca etc, but they seem more breathtaking. And trhe beauty of the valleys is undescribable.

  • No place like Swiss. Beautiful.
