Morteratsch Campsite
Highlight • Rest Area
Embedded in the beautiful nature, with many trees, two lakes and small streams.
Small shop, restaurant with good cuisine, playground for the little ones and modern sanitary facilities all contribute to well-being.
If you don't want to linger with your camper or tent, you can rent a sleeping barrel or a small hut.
All in all, an all-round successful offer, lovingly and passionately run by Kathrin and Peter Käch with children.

Ova da Bernina waterfall near Morteratsch
Highlight • Waterfall
The Cascada da Bernina waterfall trail
The waterfall trail is a short but extremely worthwhile adventure hike along the Cascada da Bernina. In just 600 meters, it overcomes a total of 85 meters in altitude. This makes the nature all the more magnificent along the Ova da Bernina mountain stream, which rushes down into the valley over several cascades. The entrance is at the Morteratsch RhB station in the direction of the car park.
From three viewing platforms you can watch the torrent make its way through the pristine mountain forest. Sometimes it falls foaming over rocks, sometimes it builds up to form natural whirlpools. On the first viewing platform, a railway viaduct on the Bernina line is at the center. On the other two platforms you can learn exciting things about hydropower and wine transport.

The campsite is stunning, and the surrounding mountains: covered in snow and ice or sheer rock faces, also indescribably impressive! 😍🏞
