The network of cross-country ski trails in the Upper Engadine is the largest in Switzerland and the landscape is also one of the most beautiful anywhere. Whether over frozen lakes, through snow-covered forests or in dreamy side valleys - cross-country skiing enthusiasts will find what they are looking for here: top quality trails, guaranteed snow, different topographies and a variety of landscapes that, like cross-country skiing, require stamina, because it is impossible to explore everything the first time. So don't worry if you become a repeat offender - when it comes to cross-country skiing in the Engadine!
Swiss cross-country ski pass
The cross-country ski pass is valid on over 5,500 km of trails throughout Switzerland.
It takes around half a meter of snow to create a classic trail. In the Engadine you will find over 240 kilometers of such trails. The classic style is as old as cross-country skiing. When done dynamically, the technique is probably more demanding than skating. But be that as it may. In addition to the trails that offer both a classic and a skating trail, there are also those that are reserved for classic lovers - a total of 135 of them. For example, the one in Val Roseg. More about this dream trail and other tips for classic fun.

Skaters get their money's worth in the Engadin. Around 200 of the more than 240 kilometers of trails can be covered using free technique. A highlight are the lake trails from Maloja to Champfèr - the feeling of gliding over the frozen Upper Engadin lakes gives you wings. A well-intentioned tip: watch out for the Maloja wind. Whether you want to run with or against the wind is up to you - but over 13 kilometers the direction can make a decisive difference. More trail tips for skaters.
