Glacier Express
31 July 2025
Anthony onboard the Glacier Express in San Moritz
One of the highlights of our trip, maybe THE highlight for Julie, was the Glacier Express. It runs between San Moritz and Zermatt. We boarded the train in San Moritz.
The Trainstation is located on the shore of the Saint Moritzersee
Pictures from the train trip. It was stunning.

Mountain Range on the way to Brig
Looking north towards Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau.
This may be the first mountain we thought was the Matterhorn as we got closer to Zermatt (we were so wrong)
This may be another mountain we thought was the Matterhorn (again… wrong)
No mistaking the real thing The Matterhorn!!!
