Ftan

Long days in the sun

The sun rises particularly early in Ftan, causing the fresh dew in the majestic Alpine meadows to sparkle. Snippets of Romansh conversations can be heard from the farmers, cheesemakers, bakers and craftsmen in the village, while cow bells tinkle from the nearby meadows. The legendary Val Tasna, the guesthouse at Alp Laret and the summits of Piz Minschuns and Piz Clünas are all excellent day trip destinations. The chairlift will take you quickly and easily to the start of the mountain forest. Innovative locals have made this Alpine paradise even easier to experience first hand: the mountain bike park and swimming lake at the edge of the village provide yet more options for making the most of your holiday in Ftan, until the very last rays of sun disappear over the Alps.
