Description

Wreathed by imposing snowy peaks, along the string of pearls of the clear Upper Engadine lakes, we head to St. Moritz, where the rich and beautiful meet. However, the route follows the beauties of the landscape: nutcrackers in the Staz Forest, the cold river Inn rushing next to us, the clear and fresh air. And Engadine delicacies can be found in every village.

 After the traffic junction of Samedan, we reach La Punt-Chamues-ch with its magnificent patrician houses. On the edge of the vast plain lie villages, mighty houses tell stories of harsh winters. We drive up and down the edge of the national park, which was founded in 1914 as the first nature park in Central Europe. Calm as the flapping of an eagle's wings, the magnificent nature of the Engadine presents itself. 

From Zernez, the valley becomes narrower, the Inn wilder. After a hearty climb, you reach the picture-book village of Guarda and the diverse terraced landscape in the Lower Engadine. In Scuol you can smell the mineral springs in the iron taste of the fountain water, the thermal bath relieves the tired muscles. Small enchanted villages on the sun terraces of the dry valley bear witness to early settlement. According to Martina, the Inn rages in a gorge before it is allowed to escape into the Tyrol at the eerie castle bridge Finstermünz.
