2018-11 [4K] Pontresina and Bernina with snowfall, new and old rolling stock during winter in 4K!
On a Tuesday morning in November I visited Pontresina station just in time to catch the Bernina Express departing for Tirano. We stay to witness some RhB action in Pontresina station, during some light snowfall. Luckily there are some 50 series Units in service! From Pontresina we go up the Bernina Pass to catch some of the trains in windy winter conditions.
Enjoy, comment, like and subscribe for more new and old RhB to come!

RhB train ride past Morteratsch Glacier on a fine November day.
After changing trains in Samedan and Pontresina from the Albula to the Bernina section of the RhB World Heritage site, we are now going uphill on a particularly spectacular part. On this sunny day, the train climbs past the beautiful Morteratsch glacier which is framed by snow covered mountains. And while the Albula section is under alternating current, the Bernina section (due to its different history) is operated with DC. Both are narrow gauge or meter gauge. The date was 14 November 2012.
Morteratsch Glacier. SuperAlp 5
Morteratsch Valley, Switzerland. From the Diavolezza Berghaus (2974m), we hiked on the Morteratsch Glacier eventually descending to Pontresina through the Morteratsch Valley.
The Permanent Secretariat of the Alpine Convention organized from 4th -- 12th July 2011 the fifth edition of SuperAlp!, the sustainable crossing of the Alps.
For the fifth year SuperAlp! linked different territories, issues and cultures aiming at improving the knowledge of the Alpine Convention, that recognizes the Alps as a whole and unique territory.
A group of journalists belonging to world's top publications (and 2Celsius Network was among them) crossed the Alpine arc for 10 days using sustainable means of transport and trying out the various links that make up the chain of alternative mobility to private cars. The group traveled from France to Italy across Switzerland and Austria by train, bicycle and on foot.
The 2011 edition let participants discover the conditions of alpine glaciers, one of the most evident indicators of the effects of climate change. It also intends to make this crossing an occasion to communicate the Alpine Convention and its Protocols as tools for the sustainable development of the Alpine region, easily transferable also to other mountain regions of the world.

Mit Urkraft schieben sich der Morteratschgletscher und der Persgletscher von den Höhen des Piz Palü und des Piz Bernina (4'048,6 m ü. M.) in Richtung Pontresina. Bei den schroffen Zacken der Isla Persa (2'850 m ü. M.) vereinigen sich die Arme zur Gletscherzunge, die nach knapp 2 km endet. Vor 120 Jah-ren reichte der Morteratschgletscher noch 2 km weiter ins Tal.
Die Bovalhütte (rät. Chamanna da Boval, 2'495 m ü. M.) liegt im Morteratschtal, oberhalb des Morte-ratschgletschers. Im Westen sieht man den Piz Boval (3'353 m ü. M.) und den Piz Morteratsch (3'751 m ü. M.).
The Morteratsch Glacier and the Pers Glacier extend from the peaks of the Piz Palü and the Piz Bernina (4,048.6 m above sea level) towards Pontresina just like huge tongues. At the Isla Persa rock formation between the two ice streams, the two glacier arms merge to form a glacier tongue which ends after about 2 km. As recently as 120 years ago, the Morteratsch Glacier extended about 2 km further into the valley.
The Bovalhütte (Romansh: Chamanna da Boval) is a chalet in the Eastern Alps at an altitude of 2,495 m. It is situated in the Morteratschtal valley north of the Morteratsch Glacier. Piz Boval (3,353 m above sea level) and the Piz Morteratsch (3,751 m above sea level) rise west of the chalet.
Morteratsch Gletscherabfahrt Engadin glacier downhill
Von der Diavolezza nach Morteratsch über den Pers- und Morteratschgletscher. Dank den guten Schneeverhältnissen ist diese Abfahrt auch im Februar möglich. Marina und Nina bewältigen diese Abfahrt mit den Snowboard. Die Abfahrt ist ca. 10 km lang und überwindet 1100 Höhenmeter. Die Gletscherzunge hat sich seit 1900 um ca. 2 km zurückgezogen.

Piz Morteratsch 3751m Spraunzagrat
Eine der klassischen Touren im Bernina-Gebiert im Engadin / Graubünden ist der Spraunzagrat am Piz Morteratsch 3751m. Nicht schwerer als ein 3er und landschaftlich ein Highlight. Zudem ist die Linie des pfeilerartigen Grates absolut elegant.
Wir starteten am Bahnhof Morteratsch zur Bovalhütte, den Abstieg wählten wir via Tschiervahütte ins Rosegtal Richtung Pontresina.
