Crossing Landwasser viaduct

Crossing Landwasser viaduct
With its 65m high pillars, tapering towards the top, the viaduct is one of the most elegant bridge constructions in Graubünden. The most frequently photographed feature of the Rhaetian Railways.
Yes, the track is super-elevated so that the train leans over, exactly as in the photograph!

Between Thusis and St. Moritz the Landwasser viaduct is the most spectacular construction on the 63 kilometers long Albula stretch. And the Albula and Bernina routes of the scenic Rhaetian railway form part of the UNESCO World Heritage list since mid July 2008 – as first of three railway lines worldwide

My Dear Füsun,

Thank you so much! It was a wonderful memory to visit Filisur, photograph the viaduct, and then travel over it. A memory that will stay for ever!

Hi Uwschu

Thank you so much for your visit to Landwasser Viaduct!
This is a very famous viaduct. Many people make this train journey, and of course they will take pictures from the window of the train.. So it is almost certain that somebody has posted a similar picture elsewhere.

Hi Steve,

Thank you again for your visit here, and of course the awards. This was from this years motorbike trip to Switzerland & Austria. After spending all the effort to get to Filisur, and walk round the viaduct, a train ride over it became a necessary thing to do!! A bit of a photo common to all visitors, but why not!

Best Wishes

Hi Wally,

Thank you for the visit, and sorry for late response. I don't know how I missed it. I really appreciate your interest, and am happy that you enjoyed it!
As to the lean, the track is banked over, so it is real!!

Hi Gudrun ,
Your visit is most welcome. Thank you.
I am so happy that you like the scene. To get the best of this landmark, we had a few days in Filisur, and visited it quite a few times in different ways!
Best Wishes,
