Laax

A compact Surselva village with freestyle infrastructure, lakes and apartment-led stays.

Laax combines the old village around Lake Laax with the lift base at Laax Murschetg. It shares the 216-kilometre Flims Laax ski area, but its clearest distinction is freestyle: five snowparks and a large halfpipe are documented by the destination.

Summer brings swimming at Lake Laax, biking and the Senda dil Dragun treetop walk. Apartment-based resorts make the area suited to longer stays, while spa access is available at several properties. Always check seasonal lift, trail and bathing information on the operator's live pages.

Laax is reached by PostBus from Chur or Ilanz. The village and Murschetg lift base are separate stops; check the address before travelling.
