Julier Pass Ascent from Silvaplana

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Julier climb of Silvaplana is rather tame and short, yet scenic quite beautiful, because you have the whole time very nice view, but for the price of correspondingly little shade. Also, the Julier is in contrast to the nearby Albula but rather heavy traffic, which especially in the main holiday time spoils the enjoyment a bit. The road is very wide and leads from Silvaplana first in some curves up the slope, but then turns off soon in the valley bottom, which you follow on almost straight track to the pass.

Heidsee (Lake Heid)

Highlight • Lake

Wonderful view over the lake from the foot of the Parpaner Rothorn. In the summer you can stop off at the lido to cool off in the water, or simply take a break to enjoy the magnificient alpine environment.

Lai da Marmorera

Highlight • Lake

Lai da Marmorera (reservoir)
The Lai da Marmorera is a reservoir in the municipality of Surses, which is operated by the Mittelbünden power plants of the Zurich City Electricity Works (EWZ). It can be reached from Tiefencastel or from the Engadin from the village of Silvaplana via the Julier Pass. The only village on the lake is Marmorera. Above the western end of the dam are the ruins of Marmels Castle.
The Marmorera Dam (Castiletto) was completed in 1954. The old Marmorera was flooded after the most important buildings had been blown up. The new Marmorera was built above the reservoir and the Julierpass road. Many residents chose to move away for economic and emotional reasons.

Julier Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

As the main traffic artery between the Upper Engadin and the rest of the world, the Julier Pass is quite busy, but remains open throughout the winter. The road passes 964 meters in altitude from Tiefencastel (851 m) to Silvaplana (1815 m).
