Altitude: 1805m
Recommended days: 2 days
A mountaineering village in the Upper Engadine, Pontresina sits at the entrance to the Bernina and Roseg valleys. Less flashy than neighbouring St. Moritz but beloved by alpinists for its proximity to the Morteratsch Glacier and Piz Palü. The Engadine's dry, sunny climate (322 days of sunshine per year) and cross-country skiing trails make it a four-season destination.
