Skiing on natural snow in Europe's first relaxed ski resort, a Hollywood setting and inspiration for Thomas Mann's literary masterpiece "The Magic Mountain": The Schatzalp in Davos has delighted generations.
Our modern Art Nouveau Hotel was built – 1898 to 1900 – according to the best practice of those days, by the Zürich Architects Otto Pfleghard and Max Haefeli and opened on the 21st December 1900. The Schatzalp was created as a deluxe Sanatorium and was the most advanced of its type in the Region.
The Alpinum Schatzalp botanical garden is maintained by the Berghotel Schatzalp. The Alpinum is situated at an average altitude of more than 1,800 meters and covers a total area of approximately 5 hectares featuring approximately 3,500 different plant species from mountains all over the world (Switzerland, the Pyrenees, New Zealand, China, Nepal, Tibet, etc.). Numerous different habitats blend into one another, creating a wide variety of sites for plant collections such as edelweiss, gentian, bellflowers, and much more.
Have fun, speeding down our over 500 meter long toboggan run. When reaching the end, you will be simply be brought up by a lift again. A fun adventure for the whole family!
