This stone bridge leads directly into the Landwasser tunnel. The railroad line is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site extending as far as Tirano (IT).
On the road with a wheelchair
- The trains of the Rhaetian Railway (RhB) increasingly have low-floor entrances (marked NF in the timetable).
- RhB offers assistance for people with reduced mobility in cooperation with SBB. The SBB Callcenter Handicap organizes assistance when changing trains where platforms have not yet been raised and floors have not yet been adjusted. It will help you to prepare for barrier-free travel or if you need help en route. Please register at least 24 hours before your journey.
Out and about with the dog
- Small dogs up to 30 cm are free of charge if they remain in a transport container for the entire journey. This must be pushed under your seat.
- Dogs without a container and all dogs over 30 cm shoulder height require a valid dog ticket: half the price of 2nd class or the minimum fare (Dog Day Pass, Dog Pass). They must sit under the seat so that the passageway is not blocked for other passengers.
