Glacier Express

The Glacier Express runs from Zermatt to St. Moritz. Along the way it passes through the Rhone and Rhine Valleys, not far from glaciers that form their headwaters. At Zermatt, the western end of the Glacier Express, a cog railway called the Gornergrat

continues up to the ridge near the Matterhorn. The Matterhorn- Gotthard line then connects Zermatt to the Rhaetian Railway at the rail junction of Disentis, after passing through numerous tunnels. The Rhaetian Railway then continues to St. Moritz, crossing the Landwasser Viaduct (illustrated) before reaching the end of the line in St. Moritz.
