Winter hiking & sleigh rides Tobogganing & family

Muottas Muragl

Samedan – Few views can be as breathtaking as those from Muottas Muragl, a panoramic peak accessible by funicular. Visitors can enjoy the glorious scenery along with some invigorating exercise by following one of the three winter walking paths or the snowshoe trail, suitable also for novices. engadin.ch/muottas-muragl/winter-idyll

1 Horse-drawn sleigh rides

What could be more charming and romantic than a cosy ride in a horse-drawn sleigh through the snowy Engadin? Snugly wrapped in blankets, passengers explore the wide plateau of frozen lakes or the idyllic side valleys, admiring the sparkling scenery as it glides gently by. Along certain routes, the horse-drawn sleighs offer an “omnibus” service, running to a timetable; passengers may also book sleighs for private rides, with a wide choice of itineraries. engadin.ch/romantic-escapes

1 Tobogganing for families

As soon as the first snow has settled, some of the region’s pass roads and many footpaths turn into delightful sledging venues. As well as short descents and leisurely rides, enthusiasts find several runs that pack a real thrill. An ideal toboggan run for families, for example, is the three-kilometre path from Alp Es-cha Dadour to Madulain. engadin.ch/tobogganing

Winter walks with a pushchair

Families with young children love the flat trails between Sils, Silvaplana and St. Moritz; in good snow conditions, these are also pushchairaccessible. The four-kilometre trail through the Val Bever is also ideal for a gentle walk: starting at Bever railway station, the route leads along the Beverin river, across snow-covered meadows and through enchanting forests. engadin.ch/winter-hiking
