Imagine sitting back, sipping a cold Belgian beer as the Glacier Express whisks you along some of the most beautiful scenery in Europe. The travel season dies down a little during the Winter months, but the Swiss Alps are meant to be scene in there sheer powdery white state. Don’t let the name fool you, this train is by no means a fast train. A newcomer to the Glacier Express will quickly realize you’re in for a long, enjoyable ride. This train is a great experience every time you go because there is always a great group of people to mingle with. This is definitely one tourist attraction that doesn’t die off during the colder months.
The Glacier Express goes from two amazing mountain resorts, so going either way is a good thing! The two resorts are St. Moritz and the equally known Zermatt. Pretty much all the skiing and snowboarding one person could handle in his entire lifetime. I find the real treat in this 7 1/2 hour train trip are the 91 tunnels and 291 bridges you journey across mountain sides and cozy little towns. Since this is a mountain train you’ll either be happy or somewhat nervous about the peak height of 6,670 ft at which you’ll travel to.
