Chur Brambrüesch

The hillside terrace Brambrüesch is located in the southwest of the city of Chur on the northeast slope of the Dreibündenstein in the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland. Adventurers may stay in Brambruesch, while hikers often choose to climb the Dreibündenstein.

Brambüesch is home to 20km of natural slopes for skiers and snowboarders in winter. There is also a 5km long toboggan run, picturesque winter hiking trails and a small cross-country ski trail. There’s a whole lot to experience on Chur’s local mountain, the Brambrüesch, such as bike boarding, mountain boarding and dirt surfing – not to mention long mountain bike tours (on SwitzerlandMobility).

The cable car whisks you from the centre of Chur directly up to the high plateau of Brambrüesch, where you are greeted by glorious Alpine summer meadows, beautiful flora and awesome panoramic views. In summer, you can enjoy wonderful hikes and cosy restaurants.
