The Rhaetian Railway has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008, under the official heading of Rhaetian Railway in the Albula Bernina Landscapes.

The railway consists of two separate lines that pass through the Italian and Swiss Alps, encompassing some spectacular scenery along the way.

The railways were picked out by UNESCO for their exemplary ability to connect some of the most remote towns and villages within the Alpine areas. You can start the journeys from the mountain town of Tirano, in the Province of Sondrio.
