  • Playfully, Switzerland advertises the Glacier Express as "the slowest express train in the world." Opened in 1930, this narrow gauge railway connects the mountain resorts of Zermatt and St. Moritz in the Swiss Alps, from the Matterhorn to Piz Bernina, frequently applying a rack-and-pinion system to go up and down steep grades. An especially curlycue portion of the Glacier Express route is honored as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: the "Rhaetian Railway in the Albula / Bernina Landscapes". Jointly operated by the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB) and Rhaetian Railway (RhB), the 7.5 hour railway journey crosses 291 bridges, enters 91 tunnels and reaches 2033 m (6670 ft) elevation at Oberalp Pass.

  • Ruinaulta (or Rheinschlucht, the Rhine Gorge of Switzerland, or Swiss Grand Canyon) was created by the Anterior Rhine between Ilanz/Glion and Reichenau, in the debris of the Flims Rockslide, in eastern Switzerland, the Alps, Europe. Panorama cars of the Glacier Express train, operated jointly by the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB) and Rhaetian Railway (RhB), provide views through the Rhine Gorge. Its local name Ruinaulta means "high heap of rubble", referring to the bizarre whitish rock formations, debris from a prehistoric rockslide that 10,000 years ago blocked the Rhine (near Flims) after the retreat of the Ice Age valley glacier. Since then, river erosion has cut an impressive gorge. Protected by cliffs several hundred meters high, the forested area is a haven for wildlife. This stretch of the river, now popular for rafting, was largely inaccessible until the Chur-Ilanz section of Rhaetian Railway, or Rhätische Bahn (RhB), opened in 1903. In 2008, the "Rhaetian Railway in the Albula/Bernina Landscapes" (the part from Thusis to Tirano, including St Moritz) was honored as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Rheinschlucht is just upstream of the Anterior Rhine's confluence with the Posterior Rhine at Reichenau in the Grisons/Graubünden/Grigioni/Grischun canton of Switzerland.
