What defines riding in Graubünden?

The Engadin and Rhein valleys carve through Switzerland's largest canton, framing some of the most dramatic high-mountain terrain in the Alps. The Swiss National Park preserves vast stretches of pristine wilderness at the heart of the region. An equestrian tradition rooted in alpine herding and pack-travel history runs deep here, shaped by the Engadin horse and generations of mountain riders. Romansh, German, and Italian cultures intertwine across the valleys, giving Graubünden a character found nowhere else in Switzerland.
