Our natural wonders – unique in the Swiss Alps
Two regions, one feeling
The Engadin high valley is unique. And the attentive guest will certainly notice that there are subtle parallels to a fantastic region in the far north. Anyone who loves Lapland will be enchanted by the Engadin. A region where nature sets the tone and adventure awaits in every season. Both regions attract quiet snow landscapes and clear nights that make the heart beat faster. While the northern lights sparkle in Lapland, in the Engadin the stars dance above a snow-covered mountain backdrop. Snowshoe hikes lead through hidden valleys, and cross-country skiers experience a feeling of limitless freedom on the perfectly groomed trails. And instead of a moose, an ibex could cross their path in the Engadin. But the Engadin has even more to offer: historic villages with Romanesque architecture, sunny winter days and cuisine that combines alpine tradition with modern enjoyment. Here, original nature experiences meet the comfort of a cosmopolitan region - and all this in the middle of the Swiss Alps.
Your winter dreams in the Engadin!
Cross-country skiing on over 220 kilometers of cross-country trails, snowshoeing through untouched winter landscapes, skiing on world-class slopes, and romantic horse-drawn sleigh rides. And for the more adventurous, there is ice climbing, snow kiting, and winter hiking on prepared trails in valleys covered in deep snow.
The Engadin is an excellent alternative to Lapland. If you want to experience magical snowscapes, quiet winter days and Alpine activities, you will find them here in abundance. And you have the advantage that the winter days in the Engadin are longer and the journey is shorter and more comfortable. In addition, the Engadin villages combine Nordic flair with Swiss tradition.
The high valley is a cross-country skiing paradise for beginners and professionals alike. The cross-country trails lead through valleys and along frozen lakes, including Lake Sils and Lake St. Moritz. A highlight is the annual Engadin Ski Marathon, which attracts thousands of cross-country skiing enthusiasts.
The best time for a winter vacation in the Engadin is from December to March. During this time, snow is almost guaranteed and the region shines in its winter splendor. Thanks to the clear mountain air and many hours of sunshine, the months of January and February are particularly ideal for outdoor activities.
A refreshing adventure in unique natural surroundings.
Two very different hunters feel right at home in Plaun da Lej. Both love fish, both love Lake Sils. But only one of them will end up becoming the hunted rather than the hunter – in winter, when ice fishermen take over the lake.
Freeriding lets you feel a pure connection with nature – untouched powder, endless expanses and the thrill of every turn.
Experience Alpine authenticity
Sports enthusiasts will find their paradise in the Engadin - whether in summer or winter. In winter, over 220 kilometers of cross-country ski trails, including the famous Engadin Ski Marathon, as well as first-class ski slopes in St. Moritz, Corviglia or Diavolezza, beckon. Snowshoe hikes and ice skating on the frozen lakes complete the offer. In summer, hiking trails, mountain bike trails and via ferratas invite you to experience alpine nature up close. Historic villages such as Zuoz and Samedan invite you to stroll through narrow streets and marvel at Romanesque architecture. Traditional pine furniture, artistic sgraffito and lively customs tell stories that are deeply rooted in the region. And those looking for relaxation can enjoy a bath in the warm water of the mineral-rich spa in Scuol.
