The Landwasserviadukt near Schmitten is a stunning railway viaduct that feels a bit like something out of Harry Potter. Its five graceful arches stretch across the Landwasser River, surrounded by the dramatic Swiss Alps. There’s a viewing platform above the tracks, which gives a great perspective for photos, and the scene is especially magical when a train crosses. You can also take the Viaduct Shuttle — a train that regularly crosses the bridge — giving you a unique opportunity to experience it from on top. If you have a drone, it’s a perfect spot for aerial shots, showing the viaduct, the river, and the surrounding mountains from above. Built between 1901 and 1903, this UNESCO World Heritage site combines impressive engineering with natural beauty, making it a favorite for photographers and train lovers alike. Early morning or late afternoon light adds extra depth and atmosphere to your shots.
