Other leisure facilities: UNESCO World Heritage - A masterpiece of railway engineeringThe line across Albula and Bernina, now more than a century old, is regarded as a truly unique masterpiece of the railway engineer’s art. Designed from the start to exist in perfect harmony with its surrounding countryside, the line stands as a monument to the pioneering days of railway-building. Since July 2008, the Albula and Bernina lines of the Rhaetian Railway have been on the UNESCO list of World Heritage sites. Where landscape and railway blend into one: in a series of wide expanses and elegant man-made structures, along the winding route through abruptly-sloping Alpine valleys. Monumental landmarks along the way include the Landwasser Viaduct, the series of winding tunnels between Bergün and Preda and the Circular Viaduct at Brusio. The line continues to be a model of its type.

Excursion possibilities: However, the picturesque village also enjoys a strategically favourable location at the sunny foot of the Albula Pass, directly by the River Inn. Or in other words, at the departure point for varied tours by mountain bike, racing bike, in-line skates or on foot – for example, along the high-altitude trail. Moreover, La Punt Chamues-ch is located at the beginning of a ruggedly romantic secret. The Val Chamuera is considered the most primeval valley in all of the Engadin. And on the Alp Serlas, there is no kiosk to attract visitors, but rather an indescribable feeling of happiness evoked by the beautiful, unspoilt nature.

Location description: The name reveals the fact that La Punt Chamues-ch consists of two parts. Chamues-ch is the older. The first written record of this former farming village dates from 1137, when the bishop of Chur bought it from the Count of Gamertingen. The beautiful old farmhouses nearly all date from after 1499 – when, during the Swabian War, the inhabitants set fire to their wooden houses in the face of the advancing enemy to encourage them to turn back. The other part of the village, La Punt (“The Bridge”), grew with the increasing trade activity over the Albula Pass. The wealthy trading families of Albertini und Pirani built grand patrician houses here in the 16th and 17th centuries. The village is also home to elaborately decorated farmhouses, as well as the impressive Sandoz house with its hall-like passageway through to the middle of the building – and of course the famous restaurant Chesa Pirani, with its baroque panelled parlour and two Michelin stars.
