Winter Experiences

The winter in Zuoz is icy. It has a ski area that is considered an insider tip and also offers high-class art and first-class coffee. What are you waiting for? Get into the winter fun and experience our top 7.

1. Ski resort

Perhaps it has long since ceased to be an insider tip that the Zuoz-Pizzet/Albanas ski area is ideal for families and for those who want to make their turns on the slope away from the hustle and bustle.

On the sun-drenched slopes of Zuoz's local mountain, Pizzet (2465 m), snow sports-loving families are in particularly good hands. The area is suitable for beginners as well as for advanced skiers and snowboarders. Five lifts take care of transport to the next downhill pleasure on perfectly groomed slopes. The special child-safe chairlift Chastlatsch allows even small children from 4 years of age to get safely up the mountain without adult accompaniment.

Special attractions are the Gian Plaiv Fun Slope, the timed slope, and the Snow Park.

2. Tobogganing

Had your fill of skiing? Then how about a round of sledding? For this you only need to change your sports equipment because the 1.5-kilometer-long toboggan run is located in the family ski area of Zuoz. You can reach the start on foot or comfortably with the chairlift Chastlatsch. The fun starts right at the top station.

Don't have your own sled with you? No problem! You can rent a sled at the Rent Station Chastlatsch.

3. Icy pleasure

The Madulain-Zuoz Ice Path embodies the romantic image of ice skating in a snow-covered meadow landscape. It leads along the Inn River from Zuoz to Madulain on a length of about 2.5 kilometers. The trail is nestled perfectly into the sun-drenched landscape. Whether romantically hand in hand, pushing a baby carriage, or pulling the sled behind you - going up and down the path is great fun. And you will notice, after a few rounds, you can cross exercise off your to-do list for the day because the fun works on your legs too. Weather permitting, in January and February, there is also full moon skating - it doesn't get more romantic than that!

Also in the village center there is more fun on two skates. The Purtum Ice Rink is located next to the Swiss Snow Kids Village with its family-friendly restaurant. For all skating enthusiasts it is illuminated in the evenings in February.

Ice rink Purtum Zuoz

Right next to the Swiss Snow Kids Village on the natural ice field, skating enthusiasts can glide across the ice or snowboard to their heart's content.

4. Winter hiking

It is unhurried, relaxing, and simply beautiful - winter hiking is a popular sport and in the Engadin you will find the best conditions to practice the activity. Around Zuoz you will find some of the most beautiful winter hiking trails, as they often lead along the Inn River through a dreamy winter landscape. If you want to go higher, you can go to the Alp Es-cha Dadour and sled from there back to Madulain. Fun for the whole family!

5. Cross-country skiing

Zuoz is the perfect place for cross-country skiers. The cross-country skiing center is equipped with dressing rooms, heated lockers, showers, toilets, and waxing room to meet the needs of ambitious and amateur athletes. Beginners can practice here with the professionals of the cross-country school, while experienced skiers can tackle the so-called Golan Heights and survey the finish of the Engadin Skimarathon in S-chanf or head towards Madulain, Samedan, and St. Moritz. In total you will find more than 240 kilometers of cross-country trails in the Engadin - which makes every cross-country skier's heart beat faster and not only because of the exertion.

Would you like to take your dog with you on the cross-country trail? Gladly! We have created four dog trails for this purpose, where your four-legged friend can run alongside you without having to be kept on a leash. You will find the trails for you and your faithful friend between Samedan, Bever, La Punt Chamues-ch, Madulain, Zuoz, and S-chanf. The trails are clearly marked as "dog trails" and are characterized by an easy route.
