MUOTTAS MURAGL

MUOTTAS MURAGL SCENIC TERRACE OVER THE ENGADIN LAKES

Without doubt, the most magnificent vantage point over the Engadin lakes and one of the most scenic terraces in the region from which to take your perfect sunset pictures.

Punt Muragl is a 10 minutes train ride from St. Moritz, then, the charming funicular railway takes you up the 700-metre climb to the Muottas Muragl, heavenly for sight-seeing and sunbathing.

The hotel has been put on the map as one the most luxurious green escapes in the Alps because of its avant-garde solar panel system, geothermal heaters and low-impact materials.

"We visited Muotta Muragl in summer and winter and for sure the breath-taking view over the peaks and valleys below at sunset is a must."

Fabio and Paolo

You can hike into the wide-ranging paths : over to Alp Languard (Pontresina) or up to the Segantini hut and the Schafberg, where the artist Giovanni Segantini died a lonely death.

Especially enjoyable are the glorious views from the sun kissed terrace at the romantic mountain hotel - where sunsets are truly remarkable. The train runs until late at night - but you can also take a room at the charming hotel.

In winter, fill up on adrenaline by trying out the fastest toboggan run in the region. The sled run only opens when there is abundant snow, we do not recommend the run for kids as it is very steep. Sleds can be rented at the Punt Muragl station.
