Val Fex

Val Fex is a side valley from the upper Engadine in Switzerland, located at an altitude of around 1800 to 2000 meters. On one side lies the town of Sils im Engadin/Segl, and on the other side lie mountains, including Piz Glüschaint and Il Chapütschin, as well as the valley's glacier, Vadret da Fex. Two small towns are in the valley, Fex-Platta and Fex-Crasta. The valley is car-free, except for those belonging to residents. There are two small guest houses / hotels in the valley. A popular local attraction is a tour of the valley by horse sleigh out of Sils, during both summer and winter.

So peaceful now, but imagine the violent geological events that created those mountains!

Seeing this, I would like to lay down in the meadow for the rest of the day and just enjoy the mountains.
