Getting Around
Featuring international crossroads with a superb transportation system, Switzerland is an ideal place from which to explore in any direction. From Lake Constance in the north to Mediterranean-influenced Ticino region in the south, to the Graubünden in the east and the Lake Geneva area in the west, culture and an agreeable climate await summer visitors.
The most popular train routes are the Glacier Express, linking Zermatt and St. Moritz (it passes through 91 tunnels and crosses nearly 300 bridges); The William Tell Express, connecting central Switzerland to the sunny Ticino; the Bernina Express, which descends from Chur, down past Swiss glaciers to the Italian town of Tirano; and the Golden Pass, which transports travelers from Lake Lucerne to Lake Geneva.
