Scenic Trains: Seats & Views (Glacier, Bernina, GoldenPass)
When you need seat reservations and where to sit

Switzerland
These panoramic routes require a seat reservation plus a valid ticket or pass. For best views: right-hand side toward Zermatt on Glacier Express; right-hand side Chur→Tirano on Bernina; lake-side seats on GoldenPass. If reservations are sold out, ride the regular regional trains—same scenery, more flexibility.
