Glacier Express
The legendary railway through the Swiss Alps, the Glacier Express is the undisputed classic among European train journeys. At the beginning of the 20th century, traveling for tourist purposes was mainly the preserve of the high society of the 1920s. As well-to-do society discovered the charms of the Swiss Alps, once isolated mountain villages such as Zermatt and St. Moritz were transformed into cosmopolitan health resorts. It was only natural that efforts were made to create a connection between these two up-and-coming tourist destinations and so a unique railway network was built which is exemplary for the railway technology achievements of the time. The 291-kilometer route from Zermatt to St. Moritz is one of the best known and most spectacular narrow-gauge railways in the world and takes passengers thorough three Swiss cantons: Valais, Uri and Graubünden. At 93 years old, the Glacier Express still continues be among the most romantic and scenic train journeys in the world.
