Palm Express

Route: St. Moritz > Lugano

In St. Moritz, a very special Postbus journey awaits you: up onto the Maloja Pass, down along Lake Como, across into Ticino, to Lugano.

The lakes of St. Moritz, Silvaplana and Sils will draw past your window seat once you leave sophisticated St. Moritz on this journey of discovery. Nature will keep you spellbound. You wish to travel to the south and the Maloja Pass, at 1 815 metres above sea level, not that much higher than your starting point, firstly needs to be crossed. You only get a true sense of how high you are, when you reach pass height: with its 12 hairpin curves, the road winds down deep into the Bergell valley, towards Chiavenna. A valley of austere beauty. On reaching Castasegna you will have entered Italy. Lake Como is next on the itinerary. The austerity melds into the sweet charm of the south. A lake that already seems to herald the nearby Mediterranean Sea. In Menaggio, you leave the lake behind. Another lake now awaits you, Lake Lugano. Your driver takes the shore road towards Lugano, back into Switzerland, into its southernmost point.

Supplement of CHF 15.-- to the Swiss Pass. Seat reservations are mandatory and available from your local sales outlet, at larger train stations in Switzerland or online.
