Samedan
Samedan lies in the middle of the Upper Engadine north of St. Moritz and is spoiled by the sun. The town is the hub of the Rhaetian Railway and is located at the highest airfield in Europe. Culture lovers get their money's worth in Samedan. The village has an exciting museum, an old Romanesque library, the famous church tower "La Tuor" and a very traditional village center. Due to its unique location, there are countless leisure activities in winter as well as in summer. In summer Samedan is especially popular with glider pilots.

“It was an incredibly great facility: modern, clean, and perfect after a tiring hike. There are 3 saunas, 1 steam bath, a brine bath, and a few other baths. An unbelievably good value for the price.”
“Perfect for beginners and the first canyoning adventure. We had a lot of fun—a fantastic guided tour through the gorge with stunning nature and impressively tall cliffs. Highly recommended! And watch out for the meeting point! Don’t follow the Google link on this page.”
“Stunning landscapes, clean train, and the ability to open the windows is a big plus.”
