"The condo in Lenzerheide, Switzerland provided the perfect home base for my family of four as we explored all of the beauty and wonder of the Swiss Alps. A day trip to St. Moritz, over viaducts and through tunnels along the Bernina Express, a scenic train route that was declared to be a UNESCO World Heritage site. A gondola ride to the snow-covered peaks of Parparner Rothorn. Exploring the spectacular Viamala Gorge, carved over centuries by the Rhine River. Hiking through fields and to waterfalls and castle ruins while listening to the distant music of cowbells. Discovering quaint villages and cities like Chur, Switzerland?s oldest city. And, because my family includes a 9-year old boy, we also enjoyed an afternoon of whisking down the mountainside on the world?s longest ice-free toboggan run and paddle-boating on a pristine lake surrounded by beautiful mountain peaks. The condo in Lenzerheide placed us in the heart of an idyllic location and provided us with the perfect accommodations where we could rest up each night in preparation for the next adventure." (Sarah T. stayed with her family in the condo in summer 2014).
