Fiesch railway station is a metre gauge station serving the municipality of Fiesch, in the Canton of Valais, Switzerland. The station forms part of the Furka Oberalp Bahn (FO), which connects Brig in Valais, via Furka Base Tunnel, Andermatt in Uri, with Göschenen, Uri, and Disentis/Mustér, Graubünden. Since 1 January 2003 (2003-01-01), the FO has been owned and operated by the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB), following a merger between the FO and the Brig-Visp-Zermatt railway (BVZ).
Every day, at least one Glacier Express train, operated at this point by the MGB, calls at Fiesch in each direction. In summer, several other Glacier Expresses pass through Fiesch without stopping.
The MGB also operates regional services from Visp via Brig and Oberwald to Andermatt and beyond, at hourly intervals.
