Hi sc, and welcome to MySwissAlps,
- You will get off in St. Moritz as you bought a ticket Tirano – St. Moritz.
- I guess the 90 minutes are in St. Moritz? You could go for a stroll along the lake or have lunch.

The lake is very close to the railway station so an ideal place for a picnic lunch which you could buy in the station if you have Swiss francs. Or buy something (with euros) in Tirano before you set off.

>> 1. At which station does the train stop and I have to alight from? Pontressina or St Moritz?
What is your travel date?
>> 2. Where can I go in between there is about 90minutes of time? I’m with my parents, both in their early 60s.
If the weather doesn’t lend itself well to a walk or picnic by the lake, you could go up to St Moritz Dorf and have a look around the town. You can get a free town map from the information counter inside the station.
The town centre is about 500 metres uphill from the station. To get there
- exit the station on the side away from the lake
- turn left, and walk past the area where all the buses stop to the Serletta Parkhaus (parking garage)
- Inside the garage is Switzerland’s longest escalator, which takes you up to the street called Via Serlas, where you will emerge next to Badrutt’s Palace hotel
- From there you can just follow your nose and stroll around the town.
From inside the Serletta Parkhaus, before going up the escalator, you can walk out onto a little viewing platform overlooking the lake.

Hi sc,
>> I have bought Bernina Express tickets from Tirano (10:06am) to St Moritz and return on the same day, St Moritz (3:10pm) to Tirano. 1. At which station does the train stop and I have to alight from? Pontressina or St Moritz? … My travel date is April 25, 2018.
I can confirm that the 10:06 Bernina Express from Tirano on 25 April 2018 goes directly to St Moritz without the need to change trains in Pontresina.
Likewise, the 3:12 Bernina Express from St Moritz to Tirano goes direct – no transfers required.
You can always use the Swiss Timetable to check departure/arrival times, the route, and stops at which any transfers are required.
