Klosters

Klosters

The upside

  • Extensive slopes shared with Davos
  • Some lovely long intermediate runs
  • Lots of accessible off-piste terrain
  • Some cute mountain restaurants
  • Pleasant traditional village, these days bypassed by the valley traffic

The downside

  • The slopes are spread over six widely separated areas
  • Preponderance of T-bars is a problem for some visitors
  • Queue-prone cable car
  • Maybe too quiet for some visitors

Klosters conjures up royalty and glitz but the reality…

Summary

In a word association game, ‘Klosters’ might trigger ‘Prince of Wales’. The resort has even named its queue-prone cable car after him. Don’t be put off: Klosters is not particularly exclusive, and makes an attractive alternative to towny Davos, with which it shares its slopes – more so since 2005, when a bypass road removed the intrusive Davos and Vereina tunnel traffic from the village.

News – this season 2011/12

On Jakobshorn, the Brämabüel draglift up from Jschalp is to be replaced by a high-speed quad – the small mountain’s fifth fast chair.

News – last season

The second stage of the Parsenn funicular from mid-mountain to Weissfluhjoch was upgraded and now goes much more quickly.
