Val Fex

view map

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.

Lovely how the sight lines of river and path mirror each other leading the eye to the mountains. Nicely done.
