Road character
Lakeside motorway then high-Alpine pass
Why
Down the A3 along the Walensee, the A13 south through Chur and the Domleschg, then the Julier climb onto the Engadin plateau. The classic Engadin approach — two and a half hours each way, and one of the great Alpine corridors.
The Julier stays open year-round but can require chains on signed sections in winter; the A13 climbs steeply in places where wide vehicles need lane discipline.
