Nature and tourism highlights in Engadin and Harz

Travel and nature experiences are highlighted in the Engadin region of Switzerland and the Harz mountains in Germany.

In the Engadin, the focus is on combining outdoor activities like hiking and cycling with regional culinary experiences. The landscape, characterized by wide valleys and larch forests, encourages a slow pace where seasonal, local ingredients serve as a natural conclusion to a day spent in nature.

In Germany, the Bodetal gorge in the Harz region offers rugged granite cliffs and the Bode river, often referred to as the ‘Grand Canyon of the North’. The area features significant landmarks such as the Roßtrappe rock plateau and the Hexentanzplatz, which are steeped in local legends regarding the princess Brunhilde and the giant Bodo.
