Biosfera Val Müstair

Regional nature park since 2011

The idyllic Val Müstair is a world apart and the only nature park with two UNESCO awards. The park is home to the UNESCO World Heritage Monastery of St. John in Müstair and, together with the Swiss National Park and parts of the municipality of Scuol, forms the first high alpine UNESCO biosphere reserve in Switzerland.

Anyone seeing the idyllic Val Müstair for the first time will be fascinated by the beauty and unspoilt nature of this piece on earth. In spring, magnificent flowering meadows lie next to ancient forests of larch and Swiss stone pine. In summer and autumn, summits, mountain passes and alpine trails offer breathtaking tours. In winter, the valley comes to rest and reveals itself as a fairytale world covered in deep snow. It comes as no surprise that the valley was labelled a «Park of National Importance» in 2011.

What's more, the Biosfera Val Müstair is still the only nature park with two UNESCO awards. The park is home to the UNESCO World Heritage Monastery of St. John in Müstair and, together with the Swiss National Park, forms the first high alpine UNESCO biosphere reserve in Switzerland. A truly world-class small valley.

The Val Müstair is aware of its values. More than 80 % of the local farming is purely organic, the valley's multifaceted handicraft combines tradition with quality and the region offers unique cultivated and natural landscapes. And yet, or perhaps precisely because of this, the people of Val Müstair are level-headed and unobtrusive. Could this be due to the tranquillity and modesty exuded by the 1200-year-old St. Johann monastery? Find out for yourself! Leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life far behind you and discover the Val Müstair first-hand.
