Assisted Mountain Activities in Davos and Klosters

Overview

Tucked away in the heart of the beautiful Prattigau Valley, Klosters is a hidden gem which has maintained its authentic charm. Chalets built in the traditional style blend happily with local farmhouses while the absence of large tour operators and its safe and cosy atmosphere make Klosters a perfect choice for family holidays.

The pretty Swiss ski resort of Klosters, is a 2 hour and 15 minute train ride away from Zurich airport. The Gotschnabahn cable car is situated next to the railway station and takes you up into the world famous Parsenn skiing area. While mainly a winter destination, Klosters is also ideal for hiking, cycling and golf holidays in the summer.

Background

Davos is perhaps really where all the work done by Ski 2 Freedom - Mountains 4 All started! St Moritz and Davos were both exceptional places that were visited and used by many people to recover or to find pallative care for a number of illnesses over 150 years ago. Especially well known for its Sanitorium to treat Tuberclerosis patients, Davos understands the therapeutic benefits of its beautiful mountains. Although now the Sanitorium has long gone - the outstanding health benefits of fresh air, clean living and a sense of calm is still attracting visitors - and we know that the magical healing qualities of these mountains continue to give hope, enhance lives and bring a sense of inclusivity and accessibility to skiing, winter sports and year-round experiences!!
