TRAIN or CAR HIRE
From the Zurich Airport you can take public transport all the way to Vella, or hire a car at the airport for your visit. Car hire can be quite pricey and when you are in Vella you can get around easily on foot or on the local 'Post Bus’.

Swiss trains are excellent quality, punctual and very practical. The Post Bus stops only a few meters from Hotel Pellas in Vella. The "SBB Mobile" app shows timetables, platforms and prices (in English) all the way to Vella. You can book tickets via the app.
The first train goes from the Airport to Zurich HB (10mins). From there the next train goes to Chur (1hr 14mins) and the third connection takes you to Ilanz (34mins).
NOTE: The train ride is very scenic, especially the last 34 minutes which takes you through the Rhine Gorge.
