There is a single-track railway...
...that challenges the harshness of the mountains and its slopes, and that connects Italy and Switzerland, which has become the highest alpine transversal in Europe and one of the steepest railway in the world. This extraordinary route begins in Tirano with the famous "Bernina Red Train", and sitting comfortably in panoramic carriages with 360° view, you can climb up the 2253 meters of the Bernina Pass and descend towards St. Moritz, the Engadine 's pearl. I experienced this adventure last weekend with a friend, and apart the nasty and wintry weather (so much snow), I enjoyed every minute of this ride, most of all the beautiful and high efficient Switzerland spas!
