Ftan is a charming alpine village in Switzerland’s Lower Engadin Valley, perfect for travelers seeking authenticity, nature, and tranquility. Perched on a sunny plateau above Scuol, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the Silvretta range. The village retains its traditional Engadin character, with stone houses adorned with sgraffito decorations and narrow cobbled lanes inviting peaceful strolls. Ftan is an excellent base for outdoor activities year-round: in summer, visitors can enjoy hiking, biking, and wildflower meadows, while winter transforms it into a serene ski destination with access to the Motta Naluns ski area. The atmosphere is laid-back and family-friendly, with a slower pace compared to larger resorts. Local culture and cuisine are celebrated in cozy inns, where guests can taste regional specialties. For those seeking a blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and genuine alpine charm, Ftan offers an unforgettable Swiss mountain experience.Surrounded by mountains and great vistas
