In this ski course in Arosa, your children aged 7 to 16 will learn to ski in a safe environment. The course is equally suitable for beginners and advanced skiers. Group lessons are held in small groups so that the trained ski instructors can address each child individually and ensure significant progress in learning.
Children who have never been on skis and beginners start in the "Honeyland" area. Here, they get to know the equipment, take their first steps, and are shown how to properly ski in the wedge position and brake. More experienced skiers practice techniques to learn the correct use of ski poles and already ski down more challenging slopes.
The instructor incorporates many playful exercises into the courses to make sure the fun never falls short.

On the Alpine Circle alpine round trip through the Graubünden mountains, you will discover the four most popular sights in Graubünden: the Swiss National Park, the Diavolezza Glacier World, the Rhaetian Railway's Landwasser Viaduct and the Rhine Gorge, also known as the Swiss Grand Canyon. In addition to these four main attractions, there is of course much more to discover along the route. The tour can easily be extended to 5-7 days.
Day 1: Chur–Zernez
After a short break in the hospice at the top of the pass, the route leads over the Flüela Pass into the Lower Engadine. In the pretty Engadine mountain village of Susch lies the Muzeum Susch, which shows modern art that deals with the Engadine. If you want to be prepared for the national park hike the next day, you can get to know the animals and plants of the nature reserve at the National Park Centre in Zernez.
Day 2: Zernez
The Val Trupchun in the Swiss National Park is an Eldorado for wildlife watchers. Whether ibex, red deer, chamois, marmots or bearded vultures - the idyllic side valley is where the chances of seeing the "Big 5" of the Alps are best. The four-hour circular hike into Val Trupchun, starting and finishing in S-chanf, leads through mixed forests, over bridges and past two rest areas.
Day 3: Zernez–Bergün
The Diavolezza excursion mountain near Pontresina captivates with its view of the Bernina massif. Part of it: the Piz Bernina, the only four-thousand-metre peak in Graubünden. The route continues over the Albula Pass – one of the most beautiful Alpine passes in Europe – to Bergün, where visitors can learn exciting facts about Graubünden's railway history in the Railway Museum .
Day 4: Bergün–Chur
One village further, in Filisur, the next highlight follows with the Landwasser Viaduct . Three viewing platforms offer the best view of the imposing structure of the Rhaetian Railway. If you still have some time, you can add the Rhine Gorge .

Day 2: Valletta da Beiva
Our first day of hiking starts right behind the hotel and takes us into the Valletta da Beiva. A good path leads us above the valley to the Stallerberg (2,581m). From there we cross the flat ridge 'Uf da Flüe' (2,774), which opens up a view down to Juf (2,117 m), the highest settlement in Europe that is inhabited all year round. Then it goes over some serpentines briefly very steeply down into the Vallettascharte and from there over the beautiful Columban Lake and almost endless, soft alpine meadows back to Bivio.

Day 3: One of the oldest crossings in the Alps
The Septimer Pass was considered one of the most important Alpine crossings in Roman times. Emperors, kings, armies and merchants already saw the advantage of a direct north-south connection and the favourable terrain formation. Finds of Roman centrifugal leads testify to the stay of Roman soldiers on the Septimer, possibly during the Alpine campaign (15 BC). What was once a laborious Alpine crossing can now be easily hiked with our mountain hiking guide. Enjoy a breathtaking day of hiking. Take the bus from Casaccia (1,458 m) back to Bivio.

Day 4: The only triple watershed in Europe
From Bivio we hike south to the Septimer Pass (2,310m). Here we turn sharply left and follow the hiking trail to the Lunghin Pass (2,645m). On the Piz Lunghin on the border of Surses, Bergell and Engadine, a raindrop is open to three oceans. This is a curiosity throughout Europe. If it flows north, it ends in the North Sea. If chance drives the drop eastwards, it ends up in the Danube and thus in the Black Sea. But it is also possible that the drop flows westwards and finally ends up in the Adriatic Sea. Wherever you go, a unique place. From up here we can see the Bernina massif with its highest peak, the Piz Bernina (4,049m), the only four-thousand-metre peak in the Eastern Alps. Finally, it is only down to Maloja and with the post bus back to the hotel.

Day 5: Oasis of silence in Val Faller
In the Val Faller natural forest reserve, nature is in charge: a forest area of 31 hectares has not been managed for forestry for a very long time and has not been grazed by livestock. Thus, nature can develop freely. The aim is to preserve the local larch forest and protect rare animal and plant species. We hike to this plateau, directly from Bivio, at almost 2,000 meters and visit the former, year-round inhabited Walser settlement. The three hamlets of Arnoz, Plang and Tga were abandoned as early as the 18th century, but were still used for some time in the snow-free season. From up here, we also have a direct view of the Piz Platta (3,392 m), which is considered the most beautiful mountain of this mountain range and is also known as the Graubünden Matterhorn. Then continue to Mulegns and take the post bus back to Bivio.

Day 6: Alp Flix, impressive terrace and high moors of national importance
Above Sur lies Alp Flix, a man-made jewel. The area was cleared by the Walsers in the 16th century and used as a place of residence; this is how this large alp was created, which is still inhabited and farmed all year round today. The high plateau of Alp Flix enchants with the endless mountain slopes of the surrounding peaks. Fat and dry meadows "interlock" with mountain forest, high and low moors form a diverse mosaic with mountain lakes. We hike from Bivio over Alp Natons (1,963m) and on over the Kanonensattel (2,241m) into the impressive landscape of Alp Flix. The way back leads to the village of Sur. The post bus takes us to our hotel.
