# Bever Lodge &#8211; A Swiss Idyll in the Engadin

> Bever Lodge is a trendy, three-star hotel in the high Engadine Valley of Switzerland, built using an innovative modular wooden construction technique and popular with hikers, bikers, and families seeking active, close-to-nature holidays at reasonable prices.

## Destination
Bever, Engadine Valley, canton of Grisons (Graubünden), Switzerland — directly opposite Bever railway station, 15 minutes from St. Moritz.

## Getting there
Take the Rhaetian Railway from Chur via the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Glacier Express route; the hotel is across the road from Bever station with a bus stop out front.

## When to go
Open year-round: autumn offers clear skies and hiking conditions; winter brings alpine skiing, snowboarding, snow-shoeing, and cross-country skiing; summer has an extensive network of hiking and biking trails.

## Why visit
Combines dramatic Engadin mountain scenery with sporty, outdoor-focused accommodation at prices well below nearby St. Moritz, with generous guest perks including free public transport and a discounted hotel ski pass.

## What to see
- **Engadine Valley** — High alpine valley ablaze with autumn colours, with ornately decorated traditional Engadine houses in the foreground.
- **Landwasser Viaduct** — 65m-high, 136m-long, six-span viaduct between Tiefencastel and Filisur on the Glacier Express route.
- **St. Moritz** — World-famous resort 15 minutes away, offering designer boutiques and grand heritage buildings without obligating guests to pay its prices.

## What to do
- **Glacier Express train journey** — Two-hour scenic rail trip from Chur through gorges, viaducts, turquoise lakes, and alpine peaks on a UNESCO-listed route.
- **Hiking** — Vast network of trails accessible directly from the lodge; staff provide personalised route advice and free transport cards.
- **Mountain biking** — Lodge offers a bike coach, personal touring suggestions, lockable video-monitored bike room, workshop, spares, and free laundry for biking clothes.
- **Alpine skiing and snowboarding** — Hotel Ski Pass available from 38 CHF per day, covering 350km of pistes, 56 lifts, three snow parks, and 34 mountain restaurants.
- **Sauna and wellness** — On-site gym, sauna, massage studio, and relaxation and meditation rooms on the ground floor.

## Good to know
Guests staying two or more nights receive free use of public transport, funiculars, and cable cars. Double rooms start from 190 CHF. The Engadine Valley sits at 1,700m altitude with 322 days of sunshine per year, making it a training base for elite athletes. A free ski bus and free laundry service for sports clothing are also included.
