Discover the national park, cross-country ski, sunbathe, bargain hunt

Go on a discovery tour, hiking through the national park in the summer or by taking to your cross-country skis in the winter. And in the meantime, the fashionable St. Moritz (40 km) and Scuol (35 km), which is famous for its multitude of baths, are also only a stone’s throw away.


Hiking in the Swiss National Park

The Swiss National Park is a mountainous area and lies at an altitude of between 1,400 and 3,200 metres (4,600ft–10,500ft) above sea level. The 80 kilometres (50 miles) of hiking paths and 21 different routes offer something for all tastes and abilities, making it a veritable paradise for hiking enthusiasts. Some hikes cover considerable differences in altitude and lead above the tree line. To be able to fully appreciate the Nature in all its diversity, it is essential that visitors familiarise themselves with the Park’s protection regulations before setting out.
