Davos Switzerland can be described as skiing at its finest—and most varied! Besides being the highest city in Europe, the Davos/Klosters region offers something for everyone--skier and non-skier alike. Have you ever pictured a quintessential ski village, with its towering church steeples and intimate Swiss architecture? Davos fits the image, without giving up any modern conveniences. A few bus stops to the lifts from your hotel and ski all day at one of five distinct, yet inter-connected areas—Ski from village to village, and then head back to Davos via ski bus (free) or the ski train—go full circle! Ski the powder fields of the Parsenn, or the groomed slopes leading to the village of Klosters—or ski the 14 KM run into Kueblis (make sure and stop for lunch!)--each day is a new adventure! Davos also offers world class shopping, entertainment, and night-life for all ages—including the theater, intimate pubs, dance clubs and a Casino! The town also has a world-famous sports complex with ice skating, curling, or hockey—Cross country trails, an extensive sledding trail—the list of activities other than skiing goes on! Stay in Four-Star comfort at the Central Sporthotel Davos. With its indoor pool, sauna, spa and in-house entertainment, you won’t have to leave—you may not want to! Each day offers an extensive breakfast buffet and then gourmet 4-course dining in the evening. Convenience within steps of the bus to the ski lifts, train station and shopping make the Central Sporthotel ideal—and highly recommended!
