Furka Steam Railway

Itinerary

Full steam ahead over brick viaducts, through narrow tunnels, over the dismountable Steffenbach bridge and past flower meadows.
On this Furka steam railway round trip, you will marvel at the pioneering railway achievements of our ancestors in the midst of a magnificent mountain landscape. The Furka steam railway (DFB) runs between Realp (1420 metres above sea level) in the Urseren Valley and Oberwald (1368 metres above sea level) in Obergoms. The unforgettable adventure journey takes around two hours in carefully restored nostalgic trains between snow-covered mountain peaks over the Furka (2160 metres above sea level) and past the enchanting Rhone Glacier. Board the train for a special kind of adventure journey.
