Personal highlights

  1. Chur: the capital of the Swiss Alps, if there would be something like that
  2. Graubünden: large canton with many ski resorts in the south-east of Switzerlandinfo-icon
  3. Capricorn: the official symbol of the state, also represented in the official flag
  4. Swiss Alps: archaeologists have found settlements as old as nearly 5000 years
  5. Pitstop: important city to have a break before reaching your ski resort
