Arriving by train
You will be taking an SBB (Swiss Federal Railways)
train to Chur. At Chur you will change to
one of the most modern fast trains of the
RhB (Rhaetian Railways) that will take you
through winding tunnels and over awe-inspiring
viaducts perched at dizzying heights. To make
your train journey even more comfortable,
take advantage of the Fly-Bag service.
Free hotel shuttle service from St. Moritz
railway station.
Train connections will be supplemented to
a maximum. SBB and RhB request you book your
seats in advance.
The railways' "Top World Championships
Rail Ticket" offer is an inexpensive
and uncomplicated way of traveling to the
World Championships. This special promotion
offering a 30% discount off regular fares
(for example, a half-price round-trip ticket
ZurichSt. Moritz will cost you only
43 Francs!) can be purchased at all railway
stations in Switzerland. Tickets are valid
in Switzerland from Monday to Friday (in the
Canton Grisons also on Saturdays and Sundays)

Within the Engadine, trains will also be circulating
at shorter intervals. Visitors from within
the region are therefore equally advised to
use public transportation and leave their
car at home.
