  1. Engadin in autumn

Engadin Autumn Bucket List

Engadin Herbst Bucket List
In autumn, the Engadin reveals its golden side. We have put together the ten best autumn experiences for you, so you can make the most of your stay in the Engadin.

Larch Tracker Webcams

Are the larch trees golden yet? You can always find out the latest status via our larch tracker webcams.

In October, the larch trees in the Engadin and large parts of Graubünden are transformed into a dazzling display of golden colours. Exactly when this natural spectacle reaches its peak depends on the first frosty nights, which trigger the colour change of the needles. The larch tracker shows the current status of the colour display in real time.
