emotions to live together
Winter Experience
You have arrived in Pontresina. You have checked in and settled into your room. The hotel is cosy and everything runs smoothly. Before you leave, you have made an idea of what to see and do during your stay. Now, however, you need to get organised. Where to start? It would be much easier to have personal coaches, experts in the area, to help you choose the best experiences to have in the Upper Engadin.
It is a magical place, which offers so many opportunities for active holidaymakers as well as cultural, food and wine lovers. There are perfect trails for beautiful nature walks, extraordinary bike trails, visiting glaciers and peaks, reaching mountain huts and passes in a truly extraordinary natural setting. There are paragliding flights, carriage rides in the Roseg Valley, horseback riding, helicopter or hang-glider flights, excursions on the Bernina red train along the Rhaetian Railway, Cross Buggy rides, guided tours of Saint Moritz on foot, various cultural and food and wine tours, such as a visit to the Segantini Museum or wine and food tasting in the wine shop. Set off with us to discover the secrets of the Upper Engadin!

HIKING
Bernina Pass & St. Moritz
Rhaetian Railway Bernina Pass Excursion Train
The Rhaetian Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, represented a real change in the relationship between man and nature, with substantial and lasting consequences for mountain life, fostering the interchange of human and cultural values. Fantastic opportunities with the Bernina-Winter line: you can admire the white winter landscape through the huge windows of the panorama trains: snow-capped peaks, glaciers and frozen mountain streams. Boundless views of the Morteratsch glacier, Lake Bianco and Valposchiavo: the highest train route in the Alps ascends following sinuous curves without a rack and pinion up to the roof of the RhB, the Bernina Hospice, at 2,253 m a.s.l. And for a lunch break, Alp Grüm, the only restaurant reachable only by train, awaits you...
