Rail Travel

Chur is the ideal starting point for unforgettable rail journeys through the mountainous landscape of Graubünden and for exploring the surrounding region.

The gateway to Graubünden

As the gateway to Graubünden, Chur is the ideal starting point for unforgettable journeys of discovery in the region. The town is not only the hub of the Rhaetian Railway, but also the starting point for various PostBus routes and a key junction in the SOB rail network.

Discover the spectacular Rhine Gorge, the wild Albula Valley or the natural paradise of the Engadin with the Rhaetian Railway, and enjoy panoramic journeys with the Bernina Express and Glacier Express over bold viaducts, past glaciers and right through the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The SOB, on the other hand, takes you along the gentle shores of Lake Walen or through the Rhine Valley on the Alpenrhein-Express and the IR Aare Linth. It offers varied routes, stylish trains and comfortable direct connections from Zurich and St. Gallen.

A round trip along the Alpine Circle combines various rail and public transport experiences. It is ideal for discovering Graubünden, as it brings together different regions and attractions. Furthermore, Chur is part of the Grand Train Tour of Switzerland, which transforms the whole of Switzerland into a unique round trip.
