We will board the Bernina Regional Railway and cross one of the highest railroad lines in the Alps. As we approach the Swiss/Italian border, we travel over the Brusio spiral viaduct, an amazing feat of engineering that allows the train to gradually descend 20 metres in a relatively short distance.

We arrive in Tirano, a quaint Italian town, before returning to our hotel.
