Pany: Skilift Pany AG
Pany sits on a terrace above the Landquart valley in Grisons, Switzerland, where meadows and forested slopes rise into the Prättigau Alps. This small settlement belongs to the municipality of Luzein in the Prättigau, a long Alpine valley shaped by the Landquart River before it joins the Rhine near Landquart. Its dispersed farmhouses and mountain pastures reflect the area’s Walser heritage, brought by German-speaking settlers to high Alpine valleys in the Middle Ages. Skilift Pany AG serves the local slope, placing a compact winter-sports facility within a landscape that remains closely tied to farming and upland paths. Pany is a quiet base for experiencing the scale and everyday rhythm of the eastern Swiss Alps.

Pany has stood as a Walser settlement in the Prättigau valley since the 14th century. At about 1,250 metres on a sunny terrace above the Landquart valley, it belongs to the municipality of Luzein in the Swiss canton of Grisons. The Rätikon range rises across the valley, defining the alpine setting of this part of eastern Switzerland. Walser migration left a lasting mark on local settlement patterns and language, while Pany has retained the compact character of a mountain community. Its local ski area brings winter activity close to the village, and the surrounding terrain supports walking and cycling in warmer months.

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.

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.
