Welcome, allegra, benvenuti to Graubünden, Switzerland’s no. 1 holiday region with 1,000 peaks, 150 valleys and 615 lakes. Sophisticated resorts such as St. Moritz and Davos Klosters contrast with the peaceful world of tiny, beautiful mountain villages.
Hikers can make use of free lifts to speed their ascent: long-distance bikers can make use of the baggage transport service (and linguists enjoy announcements in Romansh) on Rhaetian Railways, which now has UNESCO World Heritage status. A journey on one of the panoramic trains (Bernina and Glacier Express, etc.) should find a place on every visitor’s itinerary. The Swiss National Park of the Lower Engadine or the Ela Nature Park near Savognin also offer you the chance to experience pristine natural landscapes.
Graubünden and Südtirol are not only linked by the Engadine-Meran Route Ex-press but also by the common culture that reaches back to the ancient Rhaetians. The Stairways to Heaven build bridges between medieval castles, between Ro-manesque churches and chapels; they also link historical settlements and cultural landscapes on both sides of the Alpine ridge.
