View of the Morteratsch Glacier from Montebello Curve
Highlight • Viewpoint
16 stops provide information about the retreat of the glacier and the mysterious life in its foreground. Where else can you marvel at, touch and even walk on the eternal ice after such a short walk? After just 50 minutes' walk from Morteratsch station, you can see the destination: the milky glacier lake and the gigantic tongue of ice.
The LiteraTOUR offers a literary treat. The captivating audio texts can be listened to individually using a QR code at the 16 information points along the Morteratsch Glacier Trail. The stories tell anecdotes, poems and tour reports from various eras.

Bernina Pass
Highlight • Mountain Pass
The first part of the road is a very challenging one, with steep slopes until the Poschiavo lake. You can easily cycle to Poschiavo (the town) even on secondary roads and bike paths. Then the climb, which is very long and hard, starts again up to the pass.
The average gradient of the slope is 7.5%, the maximum slope is 9,5%. The vertical drop is over 1.890 m.
