Location description: Samedan - the lively village in the Upper Engadine
Samedan is not only the district capital, but also the hub of the Rhaetian Railway and home to a small international airport, the highest in Europe.
Despite its economic importance, it has retained its Engadine way of life: in the village centre, traditional rows of houses with sgraffiti make for picture postcard subjects. For those interested in culture, the village has exciting highlights in store, above all the renovated cultural tower "La Tuor" and the traditional "Planta House" with its residential museum and Romansh library.
Guests can relax and unwind high above the rooftops of Samedan in the four-storey Mineralbad & Spa. On the local mountain, Muottas Muragl, you can enjoy the most beautiful view of the Engadin and its lake landscape.
In summer, the La Senda nature trail above Samedan and the water trail at the bottom of the valley are a must for those with a thirst for knowledge and an adventure for children. Modern trails get bikers going, while the 18-hole golf course just outside Samedan makes golfers' hearts beat faster. In winter, the Survih ski area with children's ski school, the cross-country skiing centre and a fast-paced toboggan run attract visitors.
