Why Visit Disentis Sedrun?
Here are some excellent reasons!
Forget what you've heard about Switzerland being expensive. Some parts maybe, but not us. At Disentis and Sedrun, in the heart of Switzerland, you'll enjoy legendary Swiss quality - without Swiss prices. The slopes are at high altitude - almost 3,000 metres - so the skiing is "snow-secure". And who better to experience 1600 vertical metres with than our friendly, good-looking instructors? Maybe you could even try the world-famous ZAI skis, which are manufactured locally. And even if you're not quite ready for our magnificent off-piste challenges in all that glorious powder - freeriding or touring - the groomed slopes are wonderful for all the family. And there no queues - even at weekends! With one card for the whole Gotthard Oberalp Arena, you can enjoy Sedrun and Andermatt too. Sedrun has snowmaking on 80% of its slopes, great mountain restaurants, and, like Disentis, is ideal for families. There's a park and pipes for both novices and experts, and great spa facilities at the Bogn Sedrun "Aqua Wellness Oasis".
Fancy a little culture? Disentis is the oldest village in the Alps - with the oldest monastery too! There's 1300 years of culture to catch up with. Well, it's one way of making sure of some quiet apres-ski - but you might have to study the ancient Romansch language to understand some of it! In between all this, you can keep your energy levels high by trying some of the tasty local dishes - like capuns and bizochels!
If you're not into history, there's a wide variety of more conventional apres-ski activities. So there you are. Can you think of one good reason NOT to visit Disentis and Sedrun?
