Description

The circular viaduct in Brusio is very easy to reach from Brusio station.

From the train station, the path leads down to the community center. This is followed by a short stretch along the main road. After the Du Village restaurant, turn left and follow the signs to the viaduct. Here begins the new path along the tracks of the Bernina Railway and past the Crotti (round stone constructions that formerly served as cooling cellars) to the circular viaduct. 

After admiring the masterpiece of railway architecture, follow the road leading to the main road. After crossing it, you will return to the starting point, crossing the village center of Brusio and passing by Casa Besta, a palazzo that once belonged to the most important families of the village.
