Engadine St. Moritz Engadine St. Moritz The mist over the lake gradually clears and the first rays of sunlight break through. The sky is a beautiful blue and snow-covered peaks greet new arrivals from the lowlands. Just a few more steps and you have reached your goal – Allegra in Engadine St. Moritz! A warm welcome to the sunniest mountain valley in Switzerland! At 1800 metres above sea level, enjoying 322 days of sunshine every year and blessed with impress- ive mountain views – this is Engadine St. Moritz. With its dry, healthy climate, snow-sure position, seemingly endless expanse of frozen lakes and unique light conditions, this winter destination has been capturing the hearts of visitors from around the world for more than 150 years. It’s not just the landscape that is unique up here but also the relationship that the people have with their history and culture. Tradition is part of the day-to-day routine – with customs including Chalandamarz (the ancient Engadine New Year) and Schlitteda (Sleigh processions), promotion of the Romansch language in both schools and everyday life or typical Engadine architecture. It doesn’t matter whether you stay in sophisticated St. Moritz or idyllic Bever, the attachment of local people to their history is apparent wherever you go. The residents of Upper Engadine also know quite a lot about a variety of challenging winter sports. This is the largest snow sports region in Switzerland and is home to a vast range of high quality activities - from wide skiing and snowboarding pistes to suit every ability level and extensive cross- country skiing trails through magical winter landscapes, to facilities for new and fashionable sports including snowkiting, freeriding or ice climbing – Engadine St. Moritz has everything you could wish for. The range of winter sports activities is complemented by top-class events including the White Turf race-meeting, the Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow, the Engadine ski marathon or the super-fast Cresta bob-sleigh run. For those who have peace and relaxation in mind, the Upper Engadine has much to offer: There is hardly anywhere else where you can “switch off” so easily as on a gentle winter walk through the snowy landscape of this mountain region. You can soak up the sun in a deckchair beside a piste or on a bench overlooking one of the region’s many frozen lakes, after which you can enjoy the delicious flavours of local dishes, including Capuns, Maluns and Pizokels, in one of the area’s numerous traditional restaurants – followed by a piece of the famous Engadine nut cake to give you the energy you need to walk home again.

A stay at one of Engadine St. Moritz’s various lavishly equipped wellness oases guarantees an unrivalled sense of well-being. A honey peeling or an Alpine honey and stone pine bath, or a visit to an aromagrotte (literally an aroma cave) or a Finnish sauna will banish all stresses and strains!

Four ski areas, 350 kilometres of piste, no long queues at the lifts, 37 mountain restaurants and a wide variety of activities for everyone. Each area has its own special advantages and characteristics, but they all have one thing in common: 322 days of sunshine a year! Do you need some help with your decision? No problem - take a look at the following brief portraits of the individual ski areas. Corvatsch/Furtschellas The Corvatsch (3,303 metres above sea level) stands steep and high above the Upper Engadine landscape. Just as characteristic as this sight are the various descents over the glacier and through the forest. Up the valley it is connected with the Furtschellas ski area, where the slopes are a little less demanding than those on the Corvatsch. In total, skiers and snowboarders have a choice of 17 winter sports locations. Corviglia/Piz Nair/Marguns The perfectly prepared pistes spread out like a carpet over the endless slopes of Corviglia/Piz Nair/Marguns. The FIS know this and regularly hold World Cup races on the Corviglia. This year, between February 2nd and 3th, the mountain will be playing host to the Women’s World Cup, with athletes taking part in downhill and super-combined competitions. In the largest ski area in the Engadine, 22 lifts serve the 100 kilometre long network of pistes, reaching a height of 3,057 metres above sea level. Freestyle skiers and snowboarders have their own playground in the Mellow Snowpark at the Corviglia mountain station, and 14 mountain restaurants – from simple mountain cabins to a Gault Millau restaurant – ensure that no-one goes hungry. Diavolezza/Lagalb Pristine and unadulterated is how the Diavolezza / Lagalb area could be described. Winter sports lovers can choose between the gondola and the glacier lift (a 4-man chair lift). The view stretches to the Bernina massif and the highest peak in the canton of Graubünden: the Piz Bernina (4,049 metres above sea level ) with its famous Biancograt. The most relaxing view can be enjoyed from the open air jacuzzi on the terrace of the Diavolezza mountain restaurant. A special experience for experienced skiers and snowboarders is the descent over the Pers and Morteratsch glacier. The 10 kilometre long glacier descent is the longest in Switzerland and passes bizarre ice formations on its way to the Morteratsch Rhaetian railway station. Lagalb, across the valley, with its steep and demanding slopes, is known to experienced insiders as the ultimate treasure. Engadin St. Moritz Via San Gian 30, CH-7500 St. Moritz T +41 81 830 08 12, F +41 81 830 08 18 [email protected], www.engadin.stmoritz.ch 4/8 Zuoz/Pizzet Families are well catered for on the wide pistes covering the sunny slopes of the Zuoz ski area, and it’s no wonder, since the ski area has the new Chastlatsch four-man chair lift; a child-friendly chair lift that can safely be used by children from the age of four without the need for an adult to accompany them. Small but beautiful: Maloja, Pontresin, Samedan, S-chanf and La Punt In addition to these well-known winter sports areas, the holiday region of Engadine St. Moritz is also home to a few small, but no less delightful, ski slopes, including for example, the pistes accessed via the Survih ski lift above the village of Samedan. Anyone who is looking for a return to peaceful descents without the chaos and queues at ski lifts, has come to the right place, and those with some experience of winter sports, will love the evening descent from Corviglia/Marguns straight to Samedan in the valley. “ Small but beautiful” also describes the three other winter sports areas of La Punt, Maloja, Pontresina and S-chanf. All three are particularly family friendly. Come and see for yourself – at the Müsella ski lift in La Punt, the Aela ski lift in Maloja or the San Spiert ski lift in Pontresina.

  • Switzerland 4Th Periodical Report
    Strasbourg, 15 December 2009 MIN-LANG/PR (2010) 1 EUROPEAN CHARTER FOR REGIONAL OR MINORITY LANGUAGES Fourth Periodical Report presented to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in accordance with Article 15 of the Charter SWITZERLAND Periodical report relating to the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages Fourth report by Switzerland 4 December 2009 SUMMARY OF THE REPORT Switzerland ratified the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (Charter) in 1997. The Charter came into force on 1 April 1998. Article 15 of the Charter requires states to present a report to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe on the policy and measures adopted by them to implement its provisions. Switzerland‘s first report was submitted to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in September 1999. Since then, Switzerland has submitted reports at three-yearly intervals (December 2002 and May 2006) on developments in the implementation of the Charter, with explanations relating to changes in the language situation in the country, new legal instruments and implementation of the recommendations of the Committee of Ministers and the Council of Europe committee of experts. This document is the fourth periodical report by Switzerland. The report is divided into a preliminary section and three main parts. The preliminary section presents the historical, economic, legal, political and demographic context as it affects the language situation in Switzerland. The main changes since the third report include the enactment of the federal law on national languages and understanding between linguistic communities (Languages Law) (FF 2007 6557) and the new model for teaching the national languages at school (—HarmoS“ intercantonal agreement).

    LEISTUNGSVEREINBARUNG zwischen Sils/Segl, Silvaplana, St. Moritz, Pontresina, Celerina, Samedan, Bever, La Punt Chamues-ch, Madulain, Zuoz und S-chanf (mit rund 17‘000 Einwohner) als Gemeinden, gesetzlich handelnd durch deren Gemeindeexekutive (Auftraggeber) und dem Spital Oberengadin (SOE), künftig Stiftung Gesundheitszentrum Oberengadin, Via Nouva 3 7503 Samedan vertreten durch den Kommissionspräsidenten und die Geschäftsleitung (Auftragnehmer) über Betrieb des Pflegeheims Oberengadin 1. Präambel Im Rahmen der Auflösung des Kreises müssen unter anderem auch für das Spital und das Alters- und Pflegeheim eine neue Rechtsform als Trägerschaft geschaffen werden. In diesem Zusammenhang sollen mit dem Ziel der Erfüllung des Leitbildes zur Organisation der Gesundheitsversorgung im Kanton Graubünden die entsprechenden Aktivitäten in ei- nem Gesundheitszentrum gebündelt und koordiniert umgesetzt werden. Vor diesem Hin- tergrund steht die Stiftung Spital Oberengadin in Gründung. Diese soll neben dem Leis- tungsauftrag des Spitals auch weitere Aufgaben im Gesundheitswesen wahrnehmen kön- nen, so dass daraus eine integrierte Gesundheitsversorgung für das Oberengadin resul- tiert. Es bestehen verschiedene Initiativen zur Abdeckung des infrastrukturellen Nachholbe- darfs im Bereich Langzeitpflege. So stehen zwei Pflegeheimprojekte zur Planung und Um- setzung an. St. Moritz, Silvaplana und Sils planen die Realisierung eines Projekts in St. Moritz. Die übrigen Oberengadiner Gemeinden planen den Neubau eines Pflegeheims am Standort des bisherigen Altersheims in Promulins. Die Erstellung und der Betrieb sollen koordiniert erfolgen, ohne jedoch die Bedürfnisse der jeweiligen Gemeinden zu vernach- lässigen. 2. Zweck Diese Vereinbarung definiert die Ziele und Aufgaben des Auftragnehmers und legt die ge- genseitigen Rechte und Pflichten fest. Die Gemeinden übertragen den Betrieb der Langzeitpflege gemäss nachfolgenden Ausfüh- rungen an das SOE. Ziel ist eine hochstehende und am Menschen orientierte Versorgung von Bevölkerung und Gästen im Bereich der Langzeitpflege.
