The Round Trip Experience

Alpine Circle

Glaciers, natural wonders, gorges and railway experiences: these three Graubünden highlights are linked by the Alpine Circle. The round trip is available in three variants and takes you to different experiences - in the Lower Engadine, nature and culture enthusiasts get their money's worth.

Diverse and varied.
