Together, the village of Arosa and the winter sports resort of Lenzerheide represent the largest connected winter sports area in the Grisons, with 221 kilometres of pistes and 60 kilometres of perfectly groomed cross-country ski trails. But there’s also plenty to discover off the slopes!
ACTIVITIES
To ski or not to ski – that is not the question. Because the answer is obvious: once you see the view outside, there’s no way you can resist the draw of the mountains! The Arosa Lenzerheide ski area has long been recognised as a mecca for winter sports lovers. Whether on two boards or one, we invite you to conquer the slopes against magnificent mountain backdrops. A variety of blue, red and black pistes guarantee that every member of the family will find the perfect run.
ACTIVITIES
Downhill skiing, cross-country skiing or snowboard: what will you try for the first time this winter? Whatever you choose, the Arosa snow sports school will be by your side to help you become a true pro. Fans of freestyle can put their skills to the test at the Arosa Snowpark, which offers a range of activities and areas for every skill level. And there’s no need to worry about equipment, either: our partner Gisler Sport offers everything you could need from a handy on-site location at the Valsana Hotel.
ACTIVITIES
Skiing not your thing? Fancy mixing things up? In Arosa, the possibilities are endless – from sledding, hockey and ice skating to snurfing with hotel director Claudio. Want to discover the snowy forests on a self-guided hike or snowshoe walk? Just ask: we’ll be delighted to share our insider tips. You can also sample seasonal culinary highlights at one of the many traditional mountain huts or fine dining restaurants.
ACTIVITIES
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 winter 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.
ACTIVITIES
After an adrenaline-packed day in the mountains, nothing beats a spot of pure relaxation – and where better to do it than the 800-square-meter Valsana Spa? Float in the pool as you soak up views of the spectacular snow-covered mountains, then select an individually tailored treatment from our holistic spa menu to soothe weary muscles and prepare you for the next day’s action.

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.
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
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
As its name suggests, “snurfing” mixes surfing and snow – and it’s a sport we’re thrilled to rediscover. Hotel director Claudio Laager will accompany you for your first attempts on the board. Later 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
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
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
As dusk draws in, we set out to go stalking – but not as you might expect it. After a refreshing aperitif, it’s time to enjoy uninterrupted views of the wildlife sanctuary at Schafrügg from the top floor of the Tschuggen Grand Hotel.
Experiences
This Curated Adventure is all about letting our creative juices flow. After crafting our own Swedish fire logs, we’ll light them together and bake delicious twist bread on an open fire.
Rest
Arosa enchants all who visit it with breath-taking mountains and unspoilt nature. Alongside a selection of well-trodden winter hiking trails, this climatic spa resort also offers places for quiet reflection.
Play
The Snurfer faded more and more into obscurity – hence Claudio’s mission to bring this retro pastime back to life. As part of Moving Mountains, he offers guests snurfing courses and tours.
