10 Outdoor Activities in Canton of Graubunden That You Shouldn't Miss
Quaint alpine villages and great skiing entice travelers to the Grisons.

Join the ski action at the resorts of St. Moritz, Davos and Arosa or stake a lofty claim with a visit to Juf, which boasts the highest altitude of any inhabited village in the Alps. In summer, take a hike through the Engadine Valley in the unspoiled beauty of Swiss National Park.

We first discovered this valley on a hike from Muottas Muragl on the “gastronomic trail” and fell in love with this picturesque valley with views of glacier covered peaks, cattle, llamas, goats and sheep and the sounds of cowbells and mountain streams. The first time we walked on the marked Trails on either side of the valley. The second time we decided just to walk along the road to be in the floor of the valley which by the way is quite a bit shorter than the trails up on the side of the mountains. The trail to the Val Fex runs right by our hotel in the entire trail was absolutely beautiful.

We had a great weekend in St. Moritz. We had an amazing experience in EnderSports. All the associates were super helpful and friendly. And Dario, our instructor from PassionSki, super friendly, went above and beyond to accommodate both of us, with zero skiing knowledge. Thanks again guys, and hopefully we'll be back soon! :)

I took x3 morning lessons with the skiing instructor Nick (9am-12 noon). For someone who hasn’t skied in over 8 years Nicks patience and ability to read how well your getting on to be able to challenge you but not ever do it was excellent. His personality and charisma will make any student of his at ease. A friendly and motivated person (also speaks three languages I believe, English, Dutch and German). We arranged to meet at the ski shops prior to getting onto the slopes and nicks punctuality every morning and ability to adapt to starting times was great I.e 7am/8am/9am. We started on the basic learning slopes and re-learned techniques, how to position skies and gained a fundamental understanding of stopping and starting. By the end of the first day Nick took myself up to the blue slopes. We managed a good few runs of the slopes, a few bumps, trips and falls later. Nick analyses the good and the bad and positively encourages you to make the right moves. Once I had got ahold of the instructions it made the advanced slopes (red and eventually black) manageable by the third lesson. If you’re on the edge of booking a lesson or independently going on the slopes, there is only one winner... book Nick, you will not regret it! (Photo taken off the lessons attached) -Nathan

The ski resorts of Flims, Laax and Falera are combined into one magnificent winter playground for skiers and snowboarders.
Reviewed By SteveT185 - Montreal, Canada
Great ski hill(s)! The Flims/Laax/Falera ski resort is an off-piste skier or snowboarders dream, you can basically go down in almost any direction. Not many expert ski runs but this is offset by the extensive off-piste. We skied 1700 vertical feet on one run! Of course, it helped that the ski conditions were excellent this year. However, they also have excellent snow making capabilities and generally keep the runs down to 1100 metres open every season. The lift system is excellent and connects you easily to all areas and you can get back from the remotest areas with 2 lifts maximum. Nice chalets on the hill and we particularly liked Alp Nagan hut and the hut at Curnius. Overall, an excellent ski experience for all.

The snow-safe snow sports region Arosa Lenzerheide convinces with 225 groomed slopes on up to 2865m above sea level. Wide slopes for carvers or steep hills leaving burning legs make the hearts of winter sports fans beat faster. Mountain adventures such as SnowNight, full moon descent or EarlyBird create very special slope experiences. More than 40 cosy mountain restaurants and huts spoil you with a large choice of delicacies and sun terraces with spectacular views.

Lonely place for skiing. Traveling to Arosa during winter could be difficult (road closed due to weather conditions). Arasa is beatifull place with excellent service of ski lift. For sure I will back.
