Regulations for water sports activities
From stand-up paddling to sailing – there's a whole host of activities on the lakes in the Engadine. The current overview of the terms of use shows which activities are permitted and which rules apply where.
Invasive plants and animals also inhabit bodies of water. Once they have entered a body of water, it is almost impossible to remove them. Therefore, it is essential to prevent them from being introduced from one body of water to another.
For water sports such as stand-up paddleboarding, windsurfing, kitesurfing, diving, and the use of canoes, inflatable boats, or other watercraft, the following measures are strongly recommended for everyone:
If everyone follows these simple rules, we can protect the waters of Graubünden from further invasions of non-native species.
To protect waterways, the canton of Graubünden has a mandatory boat registration and cleaning requirement. Boat operators must report any change of location of their registered vessel to a different body of water and have it cleaned before launching. This requirement also applies in other cantons.
The shore of Lake Silvaplana is located in a protected zone, and only the official entry and exit points may be used.
Kitesurfing is not permitted in the windsurfing training zone. This zone is marked with buoys.
Thank you for your respectful cooperation.
