Flumserberg
Intro
Flumserberg lies high above the southern shore of the Walensee facing the magnificent and geologically fascinating Churfirsten chain. This family-friendly resort is surrounded by varied walking country and offers many attractions for children. In winter, Flumserberg is the biggest winter sports’ region in eastern Switzerland.
The Flumserberg leisure destination lies high above Lake Walen and offers countless family-friendly activities in both summer and winter. Flumserberg can be reached in less than 90 minutes by public transport from Zurich and St.Gallen.
Winter:
The snow-sure Flumserberg winter sports area is the largest winter sports destination between Zurich and Chur and offers slopes of varying degrees of difficulty. The SnowPark, the FamilyRun, the SkiCross and the HäxäWäldli adventure slope provide plenty of variety. Cross-country skiers will find 20 km of trails on the Prodalp and on Alp Tannenboden. The 3km-long toboggan run from Prodalp to Tannenheim provides further action. Those who prefer a more leisurely approach can enjoy the idyll and tranquillity on the three signposted snowshoe routes on the Flumserberg. Children and beginners can familiarize themselves with snow sports in the two free practice areas. Cozy mountain restaurants provide culinary variety.
Those who would like to discover something new can get an introduction to the world of sled dogs on Flumserberg. From harnessing and unharnessing the huskies, to expert instruction, to gliding silently through the snowy winter landscape followed by mulled wine, an unforgettable experience for dog lovers.
