It is believed that the local air works wonders here, healing and giving guests a chic mood and cheerfulness for a long time. Unlike most resorts, Davos is a full-fledged city with more than 14 thousand inhabitants.
Davos can be called the heart of the Alps, because thanks to the unique healing mountain air, it is known and extremely popular since 1860. In those days, patients with tuberculosis and cancer of the respiratory tract were treated here. Then the sanatoriums were rebuilt into numerous hotel complexes and luxurious castles. Now four-star hotels here are the declared norm. Due to the immense popularity of the resort, there is a need to make reservations in advance. However, the city has many apartment options for young people who love this place for its excellent ski slopes.
The resort is also in demand among snowboarders, for whom all conditions for a comfortable stay have been created. There is everything here, from snowboard schools for newly minted board lovers and mountain peaks, to a whole park with tracks of varying difficulty. Not all of the resort's mountains have been explored. Fans of extreme sports can choose any of the ski areas located on five different peaks. Especially for them, several tracks have been created on the remote northern slopes of the Gotshnagrat ridge. Each mountain is isolated from the rest and located at a distance from each other. Each track has its own peculiarity and uniqueness. The length of all tracks is approximately 335 km. The longest track has a vertical drop of about 900 meters and a length of 55 kilometers.
Despite all its fashionableness, the Davos resort is not excluded from disadvantages. For example, there are no lifts "from the doors". All of them are somewhat removed. And due to the huge popularity, queues are often formed in front of the lifts, which is very upsetting for many guests of the resort. Slopes thawed in the afternoon are treated with artificial snow, but you can rarely encounter this phenomenon. Yes, and with the usual Alpine charm, it is problematic here, at the entrance to the city guests will be greeted not by houses, but by gray five-story buildings. Although you quickly get used to it, this impression will quickly be replaced by others, more vivid and lively.
For lovers of a relaxing holiday, the resort offers several tennis courts, horse riding, several ice rinks, indoor golf, hiking and several indoor pools. By the way, there is the largest natural ice rink in the world, which is no less popular than the ski slopes. In addition, you can visit several excellent excursions: the botanical garden, where more than 10,000 plants await vacationers, the toy fountain, which houses a unique collection of old toys, the winter sports museum, trips to neighboring resorts, art galleries and much more.
Vacationers with small children can use the services of a kindergarten for babies, a nanny service, a ski school for children from three years old, and a children's hotel. Hiking does not leave anyone indifferent, because ahead are casinos, cinemas and theaters, art galleries, gaming salons, a bridge club. And all this is not counting more than a hundred restaurants and cafes where you can delight yourself with local cuisine. The Davos resort of Switzerland is a place where not only body, but also soul will rest from working everyday life.
