Surava

Surava is a small village in the Swiss canton of Graubünden, located in the Albula valley just a few kilometres from Tiefencastel and Filisur. This rural settlement retains traditional Graubünden architecture and enjoys an unspoilt alpine setting, surrounded by wooded slopes and mountain peaks. The village lies along the Albula railway line, part of the Rhaetian Railway network recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its remarkable engineering works, making it a notable stop for enthusiasts of scenic train journeys. Surava serves as a starting point for summer walking routes through the Albula region, as well as for winter activities, with nearby resorts such as Davos and Lenzerheide providing easy access to ski areas. The village retains a peaceful character, away from the bustle of larger tourist resorts, while offering a handful of local shops and amenities. The mountain climate, with cold, snowy winters and mild summers, reflects typical conditions found in this part of the Swiss Alps. Surava therefore appeals to visitors seeking tranquillity and nature within an authentic setting in the canton of Graubünden.
