As Europe’s highest town at 1560m altitude, Davos is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the fabulous skiing to be found in the surrounding mountains. Davos was originally a health resort where people were sent to breathe in the Swiss mountain air, are now fine hotels and the resort is a bustling town. Step out of your luxury ski chalet in Davos and not only can you enjoy a large, varied ski area with long runs down to Klosters, but some great snowboarding too.
