Scenic trains in January – Bernina Express
-
I am heading to Switzerland on the 9th/10th of Jan for almost 2 weeks with plans of riding the scenic trains. I have rode them before just not in the middle of winter. The last part of the trip is where I am still looking for suggestions and information.
I will be riding the Bernina Express from Chur to Tirano, after a couple days in Tirano I will need to get to Lugano on the 18th of Jan. as of now I have plans of leaving Tirano at
11:08 Tirano to Monza
13:53 Monza to Lugano
Is this a good route? Easy? Scenic? Last time I did this I used the Bernina Express Bus.
The other leg is the Gotthard Panorama Express route. I understand that the Gotthard Panorama Express doesn’t run in the winter and the steam ship between Fluelin and Lucerne isn’t in service during the winter. I believe I can take regular trains from Lugano and Fluelin, but I want to be sure to take scenic route not direct route? I enjoyed the steam ship from Fluelin to Lucerne in the past but I assume the ship they use in the winter is nice too?
Thanks in advance
