Things to do in and around Klosters and Davos
Klosters has become world famous over the years - renowned for its
stunning location in a wide valley high in the Swiss Alps; for its charmingly
decorated chalets; as a ski and snowboard venue par excellence and as the
favourite winter resort of royalty. Klosters shares much of its skiing area
with neighbouring Davos and the ski pass grants you access to 300km of
pistes, 55 lifts and 20 or more mountain restaurants. The resort also boasts
one of the longest continuous pistes in Europe - over 12km long - and
105km of prepared cross-country trails.
For the non-skiing winter visitor, there is almost an endless variety of other
interests to pursue, including  3 giant sledge runs, 20km of winter walking
trails, ice hockey, skating, curling, horse-drawn sleighs. More details are
here.
In summer, the Swiss Alps transform themselves into breathtakingly
beautiful mountain meadows echoing to the sound of cow bells. The cable
cars and mountain railways that served the skiers so well in the winter now
transport hikers and sun worshippers alike to the numerous peaks that
surround Klosters and Davos. Golfers will revel in Klosters, which has its
own  9 hole golf course. If this is not enough, head over to Davos (10km)
for a full 18 hole championship course. Other summer activities in and
around Klosters include horse riding, tennis, mountain biking, downhill
cycling, fishing, water sports, indoor/outdoor tennis, mini-golf, swimming,
summer tobogganing at Schatzalp, rollerblading, clay pigeon shooting,
rock climbing, mountain railways. More details.
Bon viveurs and gastronomes will also love what Klosters has to offer. In
the immediate vicinity of Chalet Arve are two establishments of note - the
Steinbock and the Walserhof. But there are many more including traditional
Swiss restaurants and superb pizzerias. Nightlife in Klosters is available,
but is a little restrained - more piano bars than full blown discotheques. For
the hotspots, head up the valley to Davos - a 10 minute car/taxi ride away.
Alternatively, a night train will bring you back at weekends.
