Valendas Train Station Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Massive steel bridge at the Valenda-Sagogne station. You can take great overview photos of the beautiful nature in the Rhine Gorge from it.
I'm excited to see who makes this bridge swing... ;-)

Protective Wall in the Ruinaulta Gorge

Highlight • Structure

A rampart protecting the railway line directly beneath an impressive rocky landscape. The hiking trail leads over this rampart, and the view up to the cliffs is impressive.

View of the railroad line

Highlight • Viewpoint

Magnificent scenery! The Rhine Gorge was formed by a landslide over 10,000 years ago and is definitely worth a visit.

The Rhaetian Railway line runs almost the entire length of the gorge. It's a breathtaking sight to see the carriages zipping through the tight curves!

Rhine Bend (Rheinschlucht)

Highlight • Gorge

Probably one of the most famous photographs from above of the Rhine Gorge. But even down in the gorge, this section offers many wonderful impressions and new perspectives.
