Italian Trans Siberian

Experience overview

Step aboard the Italian Trans-Siberian, a nostalgic journey through the majestic Abruzzo Mountains. This 120-kilometre route aboard a beautifully restored 19th-century train transports you to a bygone era, where slow travel reveals the beauty of Central Italy at its finest.

Departing from Rome, the train winds its way to Sulmona and Roccaraso, crossing rugged peaks, snowy forests, and frozen lakes. At an altitude of 1,269 metres, this iconic ride offers breathtaking views as it ascends rocky summits before gently looping down.

Inside the vintage carriage, the elegance of the Belle Époque surrounds you. Sit back and soak in the charm of an experience that’s as much about the journey as the destination. With tunnels, narrow cuttings, and spectacular scenery, this moving museum combines history and adventure at a leisurely pace.

With ItalyCharme, your Italian Trans-Siberian experience is seamless and unforgettable. Customise your journey for a unique exploration of Abruzzo’s timeless beauty.
