Davos Itineraries

"Follow the quieter lakeside paths on the south shore for fewer walkers and more private benches.Pack a small thermos or buy a takeaway hot drink to enjoy on a bench — September mornings can be crisp and cinematic.If mobility or footing is a concern, stick to the flat promenade rather than the uneven natural trails."

"Choose a sharing plate or light pasta to keep the meal intimate and not overly filling.Request a quieter table away from the main route — ideal for lingering conversation.If the mountain visit worked up an appetite, ask for local specialties to taste the region together."

"Ask at booking or check-in for a ground-floor or elevator-served room to avoid stairs.Mention any dietary requirements or mobility needs so the hotel can prepare accessible dining/seating.Take 20–30 minutes seated outside (or on the hotel terrace) to adjust to the mountain air; hydration is important at Davos altitude."

"Check lift schedules in advance; buy group or day passes online to skip ticket queues.Bring light layers and a windbreaker — mountain gusts cool down quickly even in July, especially near the summit.If someone prefers to bike, ask about local bike shuttles or rentals at the base; helmets and pads are recommended for shared trails."

"Use a short taxi ride to reach the village center and ask the driver to drop you at the most level access point.Choose cafés with step-free entrances and indoor seating; bring a light layer as mountain afternoons can be cool.Stay on the main village path; it’s cobbled in places—use rubber-soled shoes for steadier footing and consider a walking pole if helpful."

"Reserve access or spa slots in advance for a larger group, and ask for group-changing-room options if available.Walk the gardens together for photos — the historic Belle Époque backdrop is ideal for memorable group shots.If anyone wants more activity, a short toboggan or scenic trail nearby gives an alternative to spa time."

"Reserve a terrace seat well in advance and ask for a spot with unobstructed west-facing views for the best sunset colours.Bring a lightweight shawl or blanket offered by the venue for intimate warmth as temperatures drop after sunset.Share a local aperitif (ask for a house suggestion) and time it so your drink arrives just before the sun dips for photos and quiet conversation."

"Use the lower-capacity morning hours for easier boarding and more seating availability in the cabins.Ask lift operators for help boarding if you use a rollator or walking aid; cabins on Jakobshorn lifts often have step-free access.Limit time at the top to gentle strolls near the station and sit on benches—altitude and sun exposure can tire you quickly."

"Take a taxi or a direct bus to the lake to avoid additional walking; parking/stop points are near flat access points.Sit on the lakeside benches and avoid prolonged standing; there are sheltered spots if wind picks up in the afternoon.If you plan a small walk, choose the paved lakeside path which is even and low-stress for mobility aids."
