Itinerary description

English (castellano debajo):

We parked in the middle of the village in a free parking as it was holiday. There is another parking spot outside where it's probably easier and more convenient to park to start the hike, at about 1,5 km before - there is a picture in the route.

The whole path is quite simple and the ascend is not more than 200 m.
There are two viewpoints to watch the train passing through Landwasser viaduct (Aussichtsplattform north and south). The only different between the two is just that you'll see the train from one or the other side of the valley, but they are very similar.
Also, you'll be able to watch is from below; next to the river; where you'll find some tables for picnic or even a fire for a nive bbq.

Important to take sunscreen with you as there are lots of sections that will be open and very sunny and also bring water along (you'll find water in the fountains within the village or in the river, but you won't find any fountain along the way).

The train crosses twice every hour (.59 towards Filisur and .03 in the other direction) so in case you miss it you'll have to wait till then.


Castellano:

Aparcamos en medio del pueblo en un parking gratuito ya que era festivo. (Existe otro parking gratuito a las afueras donde quizás sea más conveniente empezar la caminata, a unos 1,5 km - hay una foto señalándolo).

Todo el camino es bastante sencillo y la subida son poco más de 200 m de desnivel.
Existen dos plataformas para ver el tren pasar por el viaducto Landwasser (Aussichtsplattform norte y la sur). La única diferencia son que las vistas serán desde la izquierda o la derecha del valle, pero ambas son parecidas.
Además, se puede ver también desde abajo donde hay varias mesas e incluso un fuego para hacer una barbacoa.

Importante la crema del sol ya que muchas partes son descubiertas y llevar agua (encontrarás agua en las fuentes del pueblo y el río, pero no había fuentes por el camino).

El tren pasa 2 veces cada hora (a .59 dirección Filisur y a .03 en la otra dirección) por lo que si no lo ves pasar te tocará esperar hasta esa hora.
