With three major churches and cathedrals, Chur has a fascinating history. In addition, why not take the cable car up to the high plateau of Brambrüesch to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views. We return to our hotel in the afternoon through the majestic alpine passes, passing beautiful lakes and mountains.
Another option on this day is a return journey on the beautiful Arosa Bahn, which departs for the mountain resort of Arosa from the centre of Chur. Ask your Account Manager for details.
