About Davos Klosters

Davos, Switzerland, is where alpine tradition meets modern luxury, all wrapped up at an altitude of 5,120 feet, making it the highest town in Europe. This picturesque village in the stunning Graubünden region is part of the larger, more renowned Davos Klosters ski area, giving you access to over 186 miles of epic terrain. The area is well-connected and easy to reach from Zurich. Davos and Klosters are only 6 miles apart, connected by road, train, and even ski trails for seamless access between these two mountain gems!

If you’re looking to go big, then a Davos Klosters ski vacation is right up your alley. Boasting the largest ski resort in Switzerland and the highest city in Europe, Davos comprises five separate ski areas, any one of which would be considered big by American standards. The Parsenn cog rail bahn (funicular railway), which rises out of Davos Dorf, has increased uphill speed and capacity, ensuring that this historically—since 1931—popular ski resort giant is never too crowded. Non-skiers and vacationers looking for plenty of off-mountain activities have ample choices. Cruise around Davos’ miles upon miles of cross-country trails, speed down its tobogganing hills and relax with the family on a cheerful sleigh ride. Ice skating enthusiasts and speed skaters alike will be thrilled to skate at Davos-Klosters' large ice rink.

When you’re ready to explore beyond the slopes, Davos Klosters has you covered with a spectacular outdoor ice rink in the town's center, endless cross-country trails, and scenic winter hikes. Add in a vibrant cultural scene, including the Kirchner Museum, and you’ve got a destination that’s as dynamic off the slopes as it is on them.
