Zurich - Bad Ragaz - St. Moritz - Davos - Lucerne - Interlaken -Zurich


Day 1   Zurich. Individual arrival in Zurich
You take over your rental car and spend the night in Zurich. The day is free for you to enjoy, for example with a visit to the beautiful historic part of the town, for your shopping along the exclusive Bahnhofstrasse or with a relaxing cruise on Lake Zurich.

Day 2   Zurich - Bad Ragaz - Heidi Village (100 kilometers / 60 miles)
Short Drive to Bad Ragaz, where you check into your hotel. You will be playing on the 103 year old splendid Golf Course Bad Ragaz (18 hole „Championship“, Par 70, length 5700 m). The only Championship Course owned by a hotel is rich in tradition and located right in the heart of „Heidiland“. Here the trees were given more than a hundred years to grow freely and this makes the course rather wild, not just a stroll through the park from hole to hole. At least Donald Harradine didn’t go overboard during his redesigning in the early 1930s, so the wealthy clientele remained happy. But even with a missed score you won’t feel upset, because it’s actually quite relaxing to look for a lost ball in this majestic scenery. Enjoy the great views over the mountain ranges and the famous vineyards of Graubünden, spotted with some pretty historic little townships,  Maienfeld with its world known Heidi village and the picturesque settlements Malans, Fläsch and Jenins. This night you spend in Bad Ragaz.

Day 3   Bad Ragaz - St. Moritz (110 kilometers / 72 miles)
A very impressive drive over the Julier Pass (2284 m above sea level) with everchanging spectacular scenery. Then cruise along beautiful Lake Sils into the world famous Engadin valley. In the afternoon a wonderful round of golf on Engadin Golf Samedan (18 hole „Championship“, Par 72, length 6217 m) awaits you. You will spend two nights in the world renown St. Moritz, the international, elegant top spot in the Engadin Valley.
British tourism and Swiss hospitality visionaries led to the historic early foundation of the Golf Club in 1883. But also the design of this club, the oldest in Switzerland and third oldest in Europe, matches this special aura. This magnificient course with its timeless elegance, brilliantly uses every angle and corner of the terrain which is rather flat, despite its altitude of 1738 m above sea level. You will be astonished by the beautiful larches more than 700 hundred years old, the meandering rivulets, the fantastic light and especially by the towering mountain Muottas Muragl.

Day 4   St. Moritz
Today in the morning you will play on the golf course St. Moritz Kulm (9 hole, Par 27, lenght 2865 m). This pretty course is presented to you as a delightful golf appetizer. It belongs to the famous Kulm Hotel, a flag ship in the legendary fleet of 5-star hotels located in St. Moritz, where once upon a time the first light bulb in Switzerland was lit up! After playing the hilly, short parcours you will also take home as a trophy the unforgettable impressions of spectacular scenery and landscape. Then enjoy an afternoon of shopping in some of the many exclusive boutiques in St. Moritz where you will find all the world famous leading labels or take a spectacular ride on the aerial cable car, high up to Piz Nair (3057 m above sea level) in the Corviglia area.

Day 5   St. Moritz - Davos (65 kilometers / 40 miles)
You drive through the Engadin valley and across the Flüela-pass (2383 m above sea level), where you encounter a breathtaking view on deep valleys and the high mountains of Graubünden. In the renowned Mountain Wellness Destination of Davos you will play on the quite flat and rather short course (18 hole, Par 68, length 5230 m). Davos lies 1560 meters above sea level and is the highest situated township in Europe which offers the player a parcours without any distinctive changes in profile. But nevertheless, the fairways older than 80 years have some surprises at hand for the visitor who will enjoy the many water runs and new designed greens. Davos is an all year round destination, and so is the golf course. You will stay overnight in Davos.

Day 6   Davos - Lucerne (170 kilometers / 105 miles)
From the mountains of Graubünden you move on to Central Switzerland. The drive is quite long, but scenically most worthwhile, leading you through the nice area of the Prättigau, then along spectacular lake Walensee and picturesque lake Zurich, and finally you are rewarded with the splendid town of Lucerne in the heart of Central Switzerland, located right on the shores of beautiful lake Vierwaldstättersee. Truly und undeniable the prettiest area in the whole country! There is enough leisure time for you to enjoy a stroll through the historic old town or for a relaxing cruise on a majestic steam boat. You will spend the night in Lucerne.

Day 7   Lucerne - Interlaken (70 kilometers / 45 miles)
Today you will play on one of the most beautiful golf courses in Switzerland. After a short drive of 20 minutes you reach the golf course Lake Sempach. This course is the only one in Switzerland that offers two complete 18 hole courses, plus the wonderful view of the Alps and Lake Sempach (2x18 hole „Championship“, Par 72, length 6161 m). Next is a very interesting, short drive through pre alpine scenery to the Berner Oberland, the highlands of the canton Berne. Again you pass many gorgeous lakes and with the word famous mountain peaks Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau a next highlight awaits you. You spend two nights in the wellknown tourist destination of Interlaken with its impressive views over the Berne Alps.
