1,800 metres above sea level is where breathtaking nature and unique architecture collide: your perfect base for winter adventures. The Tschuggen Express whisks you up to the slopes and hiking trails of the Arosa Lenzerheide ski area, where a whole world of snowy fun awaits.
Our Tschuggen Express mountain railway covers a 528-metre route with 155 metres of altitude gain in less than four minutes. Stopping right at the heart of the Arosa-Lenzerheide ski area, it allows you to leave and return to the hotel on skis for ultimate convenience. The Tschuggen Express is reserved exclusively for guests of the hotel and offers room for 12 passengers per trip. What better way to explore the winter landscape?
As the Grisons’ largest connected network of ski slopes, the Arosa Lenzerheide ski area offers more than 221 kilometres of pistes just waiting to be conquered. What could be more thrilling for a lover of winter sports? A variety of blue, red and black pistes mean that skiers of all ages and stages have plenty to choose from – all with spectacular views of the surrounding mountain landscape. For fans of freestyle, the Arosa Snowpark offers four areas with a range of activities for every difficulty level.
Our partner Gisler Sport offers everything you need for the slopes from a convenient on-site location at the Tschuggen Grand Hotel. Choose from modern equipment for hire and sale with the professional guidance of Gisler Sport’s experts. Once in the mountains, Arosa’s Swiss Ski and Snowboarding School is on hand for whenever you need it – for guests of all ages taking their first tentative downhill runs.
Arosa offers as much to do off the slopes as on them. Sledding, horse-drawn carriage rides, snowshoeing, Nordic walking and more: you choose how you want to experience the Arosa winter. Enjoy a taster course in cross-country skiing led by hotel director Silvana Schlösser or pay a visit to the bears of the Arosa Bear Sanctuary. They continue to welcome friendly faces throughout the cold season, as do the squirrels of the Arosa squirrel trail!
Back at the hotel, the Tschuggen Mountain Oasis is your haven of relaxation. Some 5,000 square metres of spa space offer all you need to kick back and recharge your batteries. Float and relax against a stunning mountain backdrop or enjoy an individually tailored treatment or massage to restore your energy for your next day on the slopes.
We believe that people should never stop playing. To celebrate this philosophy, we've curated a special selection of activities aimed at experiencing the Arosa summer through play. Learn new skills and crafts, listen to fascinating stories and find out more about centuries-old traditions as part of our Moving Mountains holiday programme.

Experiences
Salsiz, Grisons meat, cheese, Grisons barley and cranberry jam: delicious specialities combined in a traditional regional sandwich. The sandwich is prepared using a sandwich iron over an open fire and served with ‘Feuerzangenbowle’, a traditional German drink.
Experiences
Each step a new experience: On snowshoes we hike from Prätschli through the snowy forests of Arosa. Once we arrive at our destination we’ll let our creativity run free by stomping mandalas in the snow. The result is captured from above by drones.
Experiences
As its name suggests, “snurfing” mixes surfing and snow – and it’s a sport we’re thrilled to rediscover. General Manager Claudio Laager will accompany you for your first attempts. Later, depending on the snow conditions, we’ll try out our skills below the Arosa Bergkirchli.
Experiences
Ice bathing offers not only an unforgettable adrenaline kick, but real health-promoting effects. Our experts are on hand to guide you through this unique experience – one with lasting benefits for the immune system.
Experiences
Skiing reimagined – as a sunrise adventure. Join us on the Weisshorn, where the first rays of sunshine will beam down on your ski helmet and the rising sun will recharge your batteries. It’s a chance to enjoy the ski slopes all to yourself.
Experiences
Tschuggen Grand Hotel Director Silvana Schlösser has been a passionate cross-country skier since six years of age. It’s a passion she now invites you to share. Join her cross-country skiing class to experience your first strides on cross-country skis.
Experiences
In addition to being a newly appointed director of the Tschuggen Grand Hotel, Ingo Schlösser is a passionate cook. Join him in the kitchen to reinvent traditional Grisons barley soup and create your own delicious ‘Grisons paella’. This culinary experience can be plant-based if desired.

Accompanied by the light of torches we set off through the idyllic forests of Arosa. Our destination? The spectacular Restaurant Alpenblick. Once there, we’ll sample an extraordinary selection of wines and cheese curated by local culinary expert Beat Caduff.
Experiences
Find inner peace and perceive the here and now with every step. A silent walk is a chance to reflect on what really matters: ourselves. Our destination is the Bergkirchli, where we’ll enjoy a spectacular sunrise over an impressive mountain backdrop.
Experiences
What does winter in Arosa taste like? Like home-roasted chestnuts, of course! With the Tschuggen Express we take you up into the mountains. In a fire bowl you prepare your own chestnuts – with homemade punch.
