Experience a piece of Swiss railroad history with this round trip through the wintry Engadine. Pure nostalgia!
Awaiting you is an approx. 3-hour round trip through the wintry Engadine with the steam adventure train and the Heidi steam locomotive!
Route:
From Samedan to St. Moritz, Pontresina and S-chanf
On this round trip you will experience a piece of railroad history in morsels
Immerse yourself in the wondrous world of the steam age and let yourself be enchanted by the nostalgia, the shining metal of the locomotive, the unique smell and the fascinating play of the mechanics
The steam locomotive "Heidi" was brought up to the latest state of the art in 2015 and it takes you safely through the wintry Engadine with low-sulfur eco fuel oil without sparking and with an electric preheating system.
The journey takes you to St. Moritz, among other places; the jewel in the Swiss mountains and the birthplace of alpine winter vacations. Here, charm meets style - a resort that really leaves nothing to be desired
You'll also take a steam train to Pontresina, a mountain village straight out of a storybook. At 1800 meters above sea level, stylish hotel buildings from the Belle Epoque and traditional Engadine houses with murals characterize the village. The pine forests beguile visitors with their fragrance, and impressive glaciers frame the resort.
The adventure trip also takes you to S-chanf in the Val Trupchun, one of the wildest valleys in Europe. The intact historic village center has always radiated an original, irresistible charm. Here, people still remember their Romansh roots - and so every second inhabitant still speaks Romansh
This tour combines nostalgia, culture, history and nature like no other. Get on board and let yourself be enchanted!
