10 photo spots in Davos Klosters that are worth visiting

1. Wiesner Viaduct
Spanning almost 90 meters above the Landwasser River, the imposing Wiesner Viaduct crosses the gorge, combining impressive engineering with the wild natural beauty of Graubünden. The path between Davos Wiesen and Tieftobel offers a particularly beautiful view of the viaduct. Another perspective can be found at the viewing platform right next to the structure.

Tip: Check the RhB timetable and catch a train on the viaduct.

2. Seehorn
The climb is well worth it, especially when you look down: From the Seehorn, you can gaze down almost 700 meters to Lake Davos. From here, you can photograph the lake in all its glory, along with Davos and the surrounding mountains.

Tip: Use a wide-angle lens to capture both the lake and the mountain panorama in one shot.

3. Sertig Waterfall
Deep in the Sertig Valley awaits one of those scenes that makes you want to linger: Here, the Ducanbach stream plunges over several rocky steps into the depths below. A subject where you can experiment with different exposure times.

Tip: A longer exposure time gives the water its soft, almost silky look. Especially useful: a small tripod or a stable surface for the camera.

4. Casanna Needle
It looks almost as if someone placed it right in the middle of the landscape: The Casanna Needle rises about twelve meters high on the Klosters side of the ridge. And there's even a legend surrounding the striking rock pillar: A shepherdess from Klosters is said to have been turned to stone here.

Tip: Include a person in the picture. This really shows how impressive the rock pillar actually is.

5. Schwarzsee Laret
Wooden footbridge, dark water, forest, and mountains: At Schwarzsee Laret, you don't need much for an atmospheric photo. When the landscape is reflected on the calm water's surface, the resulting shots are particularly beautiful.

Tip: Use the wooden footbridge as a natural guide for the image and get as close to the water's surface as possible for the reflection.

6. Schlappin
A small lake, old Walser houses, and mountains all around: In Schlappin, the mountain landscape feels wonderfully pristine. The beauty for photography enthusiasts: Landscape, architecture, and details alternate within a small area – so you'll find a new subject almost around every corner.

Tip: Find a spot where Lake Schlappin, the Walser houses, and the mountains all fit into the frame.

7. Schlappintobel Suspension Bridge
A bit of courage is required for this photo: The suspension bridge leads high above the Schlappintobel gorge and offers a perspective that you can't get from the valley floor. The scene is particularly impressive when a person crosses the bridge, revealing the dimensions of the gorge.

Tip: Photograph the bridge from a distance so that the gorge is also visible.

8. Red Furka
Here it gets high alpine: On the way from the Silvretta Hut to the Red Furka Pass, you'll be accompanied by the glacial world of the Silvretta. The route passes close to the tongue of the Silvretta Glacier, while numerous three-thousand-meter peaks rise all around.

Tip: Don't necessarily wait for a cloudless sky. Moving clouds, light, and shadows lend the high alpine landscape additional depth and drama.

9. Flüela Schwarzhorn
At 3,146 meters above sea level, a panoramic view of the mountains awaits. It becomes particularly magical at sunrise when the first rays hit the peaks and the light changes from minute to minute.

Tip: For sunrise, you have to set off well before daybreak. Plan the tour carefully, check the weather and conditions, and take a headlamp and appropriate mountain equipment.

10. Sunniberg Bridge
With its slender pillars and curved roadway, the Sunniberg Bridge near Klosters blends surprisingly elegantly into the mountain landscape. It is precisely this contrast between modern architecture and the alpine surroundings that makes it such an exceptional subject for photography.

Tip: Photograph the Sunniberg Bridge from a distance and give the landscape plenty of space in the frame. This will showcase its elegant curves beautifully.
