Graubünden launches special train for mountain bikers
The canton of Graubünden wants to make it easier for mountain bikers to travel to Graubünden by train. From this season, mountain bikers will be ridden to Graubünden on a special train from Zurich with enough space for bicycles. Under the name "Bike Express", the special train will ride from Zurich main station to Graubünden every day at 7.07 a.m. from 16 May.
In Landquart there is a fast connection to the Upper Engadine via Klosters and Zernez, but for all other destinations in Graubünden it does not save any time. Instead of offering space for six bikes as before, the "Bike Express" has a capacity of up to 36 bikes.
While the Rhaetian Railway already has ample space for bicycles, the Graubünden Postbuses are now also vying for the bikers' favor. In future, all buses will have a bike rack on which bikes can be quickly and safely hung up. Some routes offer space for transporting up to 15 mountain bikes. From now on, SBB bike tickets will also be valid on Postbuses.Bike-Express Graubünden
