Brienzer Rothorn train

zu Brienzer Rothorn-Bahn

Where the Bernese mountain area makes steam.

This train not only has steam, but it also has teeth. The tooth driving wheels of the engine grip to the tooth rail in the middle of the Trusses and cope with the gradient of 25% and the height difference of 1678 metres in 60 unforgettable minutes. Six tunnels and two galleries provide change. Breathtaking, if the lake suddenly lets itself be seen in the tunnel window.  Far below you can see it a deep blue colour.  You will see cows grazing peacefully on the beautiful green land while the journey takes you to the top of the Brienzer Rothorn.
