Alp Grüm, a secluded hotel in Switzerland's Graubünden region, offers an extraordinary getaway that combines nature and solitude. Accessible only by foot or a scenic train ride, this 10-room accommodation sits at an altitude of 2,091 meters, surrounded by breathtaking views of glaciers and mountains. From 8 p.m. to 8 a.m., it is completely cut off from the rest of the world, creating an unmatched sense of isolation.

Located along the Bernina Railway, Alp Grüm is part of Switzerland’s rich railway history, offering travelers a glimpse of a time when journeys through the Alps were more arduous. With no road access, the only ways to reach it are by hiking or taking the Rhaetian Railway. Its remote location and stunning alpine landscape make it a remarkable destination for those seeking tranquility and a unique escape from everyday life.

For families and travelers with children, Alp Grüm provides a safe and peaceful environment, ideal for outdoor exploration. The lack of road traffic creates a serene atmosphere, perfect for connecting with nature. Parents can unwind while children enjoy the freedom to explore the area’s fresh air and open spaces, offering a retreat from the usual hustle and bustle.

Without the noise of cars and crowds, Alp Grüm offers a rare opportunity for families to enjoy quality time together in an undisturbed natural setting. Hiking, exploring the nearby lakes, and observing the unique train routes provide exciting ways to engage with the environment. Families can enjoy uninterrupted moments of adventure while soaking in the beauty of the Alps.

Alp Grüm’s history and remote location highlight Switzerland’s dedication to preserving its cultural and natural heritage. For travelers, it offers a chance to experience the majesty of the Alps in a less commercialized and more authentic way. This destination is perfect for those seeking to escape the ordinary and connect more deeply with nature and history.
