Zernez

Among the settlements of Grisons, Zernez stands out as the home of the Swiss National Park. The village lies in the Upper Engadin, where the Spöl joins the Inn, in an Alpine setting between the Engadin and Val Müstair valleys. Founded in 1914, the park is Switzerland’s only national park and protects a largely unmanaged mountain environment of forests, alpine meadows and rocky slopes. Its visitor centre in Zernez explains the region’s wildlife and the conservation rules that distinguish this reserve from an ordinary recreation area. The road towards Ofen Pass also leads from here towards Val Müstair. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Zernez and the Engadin.
