Best Surlej holiday apartments

The Swiss town of Surlej belongs to the municipality of Silvaplana in the canton of Graubünden. Situated on the picturesque Lago di Silvaplana, it is the annual destination of many visitors who either spend their summer holidays here or enjoy rapid descents in the nearby skiing area in winter. Therefore, you should book an apartment in Surlej well in advance. Alternatively, we can recommend Apartments in Silvaplana and other private Holiday apartments in Campfer, near St. Moritz. In contrast to couchsurfing in Surlej, our private apartments offer you peace, comfort and plenty of free space, because you don’t live together with other people here. Your hosts or neighbours will be happy to provide you with insider tips, so that shortly after your arrival you know where to shop, eat well and where to turn the night into day while dancing. The best way to get there is by car, of course, so that you can be flexible and explore your surroundings. The nearest airport is about 5 kilometres from St. Moritz, but most Engadin airports land only with private jets.

An apartment in Surlej, the small neighbour of St. Moritz.

Surlej was first mentioned in documents as a settlement in the 14th century. Today only a few hundred inhabitants live in the tranquil village. However, Surlej is increasingly establishing itself as a secondary residence for guests from the surrounding countries. This is truly no wonder, as the grandiose nature offers restful and relaxed holiday stays. Hikes lead to the “Fuorcla Surlej” at 2755 meters. From there you have great views of Piz Bernina, which you can of course enjoy comfortably with a typical Swiss snack from the panoramic terrace of the mountain restaurant. From your apartment in Surlej you can easily reach by car the hiking trails that lead you to the Viamala and Forrla gorges. Here you will discover bizarre and up to 300 meters high rock walls and gorges, which could have sprung from a fairy tale book. In summer, a visit to the “Alpinum Schatzalp Alpine Garden”, about 80 kilometres northeast of Surlej, is also a worthwhile destination. More than 10,000 plants and 800 species provide a representative insight into Alpine flora.

From a private holiday apartment in Surlej to the “secret agent of Her Majesty”.

A very special destination is the Verzasca dam at Gordola, about 165 km southwest of Surlej. If you are just thinking about travelling from your private accommodation in Surlej to Lake Maggiore for a few days, we also have Apartments in Locarno. From here it is only about 11 kilometres to the reservoir. Do you still remember the movie scene from “GoldenEye” in which Pierce Brosnan plunged into the depths? Exactly this scene, which is considered the best film stunt of all time, was shot at the Verzasca dam. And today you can do it like James Bond and dare a breathtaking bungee jump into the depths. Are you even an absolute fan of James Bond? Then travel to the British capital and take part in a tour that takes you to locations where scenes from “GoldenEye” and of course “Skyfall” were also shot.
