About Tirano
Tirano is where the Valtellina meets the Alps, and for a first-timer it is above all the southern gateway to the Bernina line — the red train that climbs from the town's own station over the Bernina Pass toward St. Moritz. The classic introduction is the From Milan: St. Moritz & Alps Day Trip on the Bernina Red Train, which handles the whole route in a single day, while travellers already in the lakes region can join the Bernina Panoramic Express & St. Moritz — Departing from Como. Either way, you spend the day on one of Europe's most celebrated mountain railways without planning a thing.

Frequently asked questions
For a first-timer, the appeal is simplicity: the Bernina line leaves from Tirano itself, so you board the red train in town and let it do the climbing. Organised trips handle tickets, timings and the St. Moritz stop for you, which removes the guesswork on a route where connections matter.
