ST. MORITZERSEE
Suitable for all ages
Our recommendation for those who are in St. Moritz for the first time is to visit Lake St. Moritz or Lej da San Murezzan in Rhaeto-Romanic. In summer you can enjoy a leisurely walk around the lake (40-60 minutes) with a beautiful view of St. Moritz village and in winter you can also walk across the frozen lake or skate on the approximately one kilometer long ice rink, which is prepared for skaters daily. In addition, as in previous years, a standardized 400-meter track is being prepared for the Swiss Speed Skating Championships to be held in January. A cross-country skiing track also runs across the lake.
But that’s not all: If the situation allows it, you can also look forward to an ice hockey field, a curling field and a small village with deck chairs, beach chairs, music and food stalls. In addition, skijoring lessons are also offered. Skijoring is a winter sport in which a skier is pulled by a horse on a rope. It is a decade-old tradition on Lake St. Moritz and is celebrated at the annual horse races.
Every winter, well-known events also take place on the frozen lake: the White Turf and the Snowpolo Tournament.
ST. MORITZ
Suitable for all ages
The center of St. Moritz may not be large, but it offers a good opportunity to take a leisurely stroll through the old streets, do some shopping and stop for a coffee and cake. For this, we recommend the Hanselmann confectionery. This has been in business since 1894 and is a traditional Swiss confectionery.
BRIDGE PUNT OTA
Suitable for all ages.
If you are going to Pontresina, we recommend a detour in the direction of the train station to the old Punt Ota bridge, which is located directly under the new Berninabach bridge, the connection between the train station and the village. From this bridge you have an incomparable view of the imposing gorge of Pontresina.

LAGO BIANCO
Suitable for all ages.
One of the most beautiful Engadin lakes is a reservoir on the Bernina Pass, which is fed with glacier milk (glacier water containing silt). This gives the lake the milky, whitish color that gave it its name. Lago Bianco is on the route of the famous Bernina Express of the Rhätische Bahn.
Hikers enjoy the beautiful path to the southern dam and on towards Alp Grüm, while mountain bikers love the route along the lake and further down into the valley to Poschiavo. But you can also easily get to the lake by car to just enjoy the view: In summer the lake has a beautiful light blue color and in winter the black ice is particularly impressive.

SOGLIO TOUR
Soglio in Bergell is a dream in autumn. This ist the time for the chestnuts, which are collected by families and dried in old granite ovens, with the scent permeating the whole valley. Soglio is a medieval town made of Bergell granite, a visit is a wonderful experience.
You can reach Soglio by car or by bus in the direction of Maloja.
