OVERVIEW
Davos lies in a broad high valley surrounded by forested slopes and high peaks. Hotels, clinics, conference venues and residential districts stretch along the valley floor, while several separate lift systems provide access to ski areas and hiking routes. The town’s development reflects both health tourism and international events.
Winter sports are extensive but spread across multiple mountains, while summer brings walking, cycling and lake activities. The urban area feels larger and more functional than a traditional resort village. Rail links and frequent local transport make the dispersed layout easier to manage. Health resorts, conferences and winter sport give the town a more varied identity than skiing alone.
