Landwasser Viaduct, Switzerland

Landwasser Viaduct, Switzerland
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.

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

Hi Frank,

Thank you so much for visiting, and the very generous awards. I think you are right, most people know of this, but probably have never gone there. It is near to Filisur, and the trains cross at Filisur, so a great place to be for a few days. This view was taken on about the only day it did not rain, hence standing in the river is possible!!

Best Wishes

... rushing water, tall arched viaduct, brightly colored train -- all make for an attractive shot ...
... (this one taken with your feet firmly on the ground?) (but don't fall in) ...

Hi Wally,

Thank you for the visit, and again sorry for late response. I am really happy that you like this one, but no feet on the ground I'm afraid. Balancing on a rock in the middle of the stream maybe!

Best Wishes

Wow, you had been there at the right moment - or have you waited to see a train?
