    It is great structure which was constructed in 1903 and only in year 2009 ie after 106 years, there was little renovation work done. Nearly 5000 people were participated during construction time in such a hard climatic conditions. Must visit for swiss travellers.

    A beautiful winters day and an easy walk through the forests to a viewpoint overlooking one of the most famous viaducts in the world!

    The walk from Filisur to the Landwasser viaduct takes about half an hourSome parts are quite steep and one's eyes are kept busy taking in the unfolding vista, of mountains and valleysthe only downer was a distinct lack of snow close by, only the evidence of a heavy overnight frostThe viaduct itself looks like it has always been part of the landscape and you can set your watch by the trains crossing the viaduct each way every hour or soIt is hard to imagine how it was constructed in such wild and rugged country, with little more than pick and shovel and human ingenuity over 100 years agoWe did not try the path to the bottom of the viaduct as it was adorned with signs in German one of which read verboten, which we took to mean access forbiddenThe walk is relatively easy, but might be awkward to achieve if there was deep snow

    We first saw this bridge in 2010 when we took the local train from St Moritz to Chur, on the way to Salzburg. This rail link to Chur has many pieces of great engineering. In September 2013, we drove through the Albula Pass, starting from the Chur side (at Tienfencastel) driving, through Filisur, through Bergun (where you have to look out for the helical rail loops used to help climb the Albula Pass by rail) through the Albula Pass, down to St Moritz and back to ur base at Gandria (near Lugano) - another great day of Swiss Mountain Pass driving. Because we had previously, see some of the fantastic scenery from the train in 2010, after doing some research, I was on the look-out for the Landwasser Viaduct at Filisur. We saw it in the distance from the main road as we approach Filisur from the West. And then we drove up through Filisur to the top of the hill in search for a vantage point to see the Landwasser Viaduct. I did not get to to see the views that I was looking (because we had a big day trip) and we were running out of time. I believe I cam very close to a great vantage point near the top of the hill behind Filisur. I would loved to have had a bit more time to find the vantage point from where you can see the Landwasser Viaduct from near the hill-top. By looking via Google Earth, I can see that if we had walked down over the rail line from where we could glimpse Landwasser Viaduct the road on the hill top behind Filisur, we would have got to some of the good vantage points for Landwasser Viaduct.

    I travelled over the Landwasser viaduct on both the Glacier Express and the Bernina Express. The weather was not very good on either trip, so, on a sunny day, I decided to catch a local train from Chur to St Moritz, which also went via the Landwasser viaduct. It was spectacular and, even though I was travelling in a first class compartment, the windows could be pulled down, so I got some fantastic photos. You do not get the full impact of the height from the train, but, since I was short of time and did not want to hire a car, this way was definitely the best way to see it. I felt that my patience was well rewarded - would thoroughly recommend seeing it by local train, rather than from a sealed, air-conditioned panoramic carriage!

    You must visit this attraction twice once on the train and once on foot to experience the viaduct to it's full potential if you are on the train you must get an older train so you can open the windows

    A 30 minute walk from the car park near the road bridge brings you to a view point at the base of the viaduct. From here you can truely appreciate the engineering of the bridge. There are a number of information boards along the path providing details in German and English about the history of the area.

    Lovely walk to the Viaduct from the station. Can walk to all levels depending on how fit you feel at the time. Different sort of views of the Viaduct and trains at each level.

    I had previously seen the Landwasser Viaduct from the train, which was wonderful, but this time I got a different view on foot. There is a very easy trail from the Filisur train station that takes you to a viewing platform so you can observe trains crossing over the viaduct. I recommend timing this walk to when the train is scheduled to pass by. This walk was doable in winter with good footwear (boots and crampons). I understand there is another southern trail that let's you look up towards the viaduct but I had difficulty finding this trail due to the amount of snow in January.

    It is a rewarding hike to see the hourly passenger trains, with some freight train bonuses, cross the viaduct up and down the tracks of the beautiful Rhaetian railway.

    The Landwasser Viaduct is an engineering marvel, particularly in view of its age. An elegant, curved stone viaduct, it is utterly photogenic and should not be missed.There are two official viewpoints from which you get an excellent view of the viaduct. The southern viewpoint is about 20 minutes' easy walk from the village. The northern viewpoint is a little further, and involves a steep climb, but offers a better view. It is also possible to walk to the base of the viaduct, where there is a small exhibition explaining its construction. All routes are clearly signposted.The very best photographs are to be had from the northern viewpoint in the late afternoon, when the sun illuminates the entire structure. Photographs taken from the base of the viaduct require a clear blue sky, because the stone does not stand out well against a cloudy sky.Check out the train timetable before you go, to ensure that you get a photograph of a train crossing the viaduct! Regular services cross the viaduct a couple of minutes before and a couple of minutes after each hour, and there are occasional tourist trains (Bernina-Express and Glacier-Express) in between those times.

    The viaduct is part of the Albula railway between Tiefencastel and Filisur. I felt the view was best approaching the viaduct from Tiefencastel, sitting on the right hand side of the train.

    Sit on the right hand side of your train from Tusis to enjoy the view from the train or take the walk from Filisur station, the path is sign posted. Well worth the effort to view this materpiece and its splendid setting.

    Walks from Filisur to see it from below, above or even on the same level (follow the signs that say 'photo').

    Of course you can park at the bridge which corses the river Albula at the end of the Golf course of Alvaneu Bad and then walk into the valley and look at the viaduct from its fundament. The bottom up view is very impressing. But then you can also walk up the steep hill on both sides of the bridge to one of the two view-points. The one south gives you a more open view and you see the trains coming from Alvaneu Bad. The northern outlook makes you experiencing how the trains are coming out of the tunnel or vanishing in it.The ones which like a bit of more walking and enjoying the scenerie of the Landwasser valley, the park at the Golf Club and walk the 'Wasserweg'. This will lead you along natural springs: normal ones, a sulfat one and a ferric spring. You will also see another viaduct, but less specacular, walk along a sprout farm and on the way back you walk through a mystic forrest where you might look out for elves. And of course you will see the fantastic piece of engineering and construction work.
