Flims is on a wide open terrace above the Upper Rhine valley. The resort is well known for its sunny, mild climate and its opportunities for skiers of all grades. Flims, Laax and Falera make up the Alpenarena skiing region, the largest inter-connecting skiing and hiking area of the Grisons canton. In summer the terrain surrounding the lovely Caumasee is just right for gentle walks. |
