Sedrun: Via Cavorgia - NEAT-Erlebnisweg Aussichtsplattform

Sedrun lies along the Vorderrhein in the upper Surselva, where a broad Alpine valley is enclosed by the high peaks of Graubünden. It is the principal settlement of the municipality of Tujetsch, part of Switzerland’s Romansh-speaking heartland, where the local Sursilvan language remains an important element of regional identity. The Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn follows the valley and links Sedrun with Disentis and the Oberalp Pass, a historic crossing towards central Switzerland. In summer the surrounding slopes support alpine farming and walking routes; winter brings skiers to the wider Andermatt–Sedrun–Disentis area.

The terrain of Grisons ranges from high Alpine valleys in the south to the broad Rhine valley in the north, shaping Switzerland’s largest and most linguistically diverse canton. The Inn flows through the Engadin, while the Rhine has long connected Chur, the cantonal capital, with the rest of central Europe. Romansh remains a defining regional language alongside German and Italian. The Rhaetian Railway’s Albula and Bernina lines, recognised by UNESCO, cross dramatic mountain country with remarkable engineering. Browse further webcams from the area to trace how this corner of eastern Switzerland links with neighbouring Alpine regions.

Switzerland stretches from the Jura Mountains in the northwest to the Alps in the south, encompassing a central plateau of cities, farms and lakes. The Rhine rises in the Swiss Alps, while Lake Geneva forms part of the country’s southwestern border. Zürich, Geneva and Basel are major urban centres, yet mountain railways and passes remain central to how many regions are experienced. Four national languages—German, French, Italian and Romansh—reflect Switzerland’s distinct cantonal identities. The Matterhorn above Zermatt is among Europe’s most recognisable peaks, and the 1291 Federal Charter is closely associated with the country’s founding tradition.
