Resort Highlights
The Grisons end of the SkiArena
Sedrun lies in the municipality of Tujetsch (Tavetsch in German), in the Surselva region of the Swiss canton of Grisons. Tujetsch is the westernmost municipality in the canton, and its geography explains the ski area: it connects over the Oberalp Pass to the Urseren valley in the canton of Uri, and that pass is the link that binds Sedrun to Andermatt in the SkiArena Andermatt-Sedrun. Sedrun is the quieter, Romansh-speaking end of that partnership, a traditional mountain village rather than a resort development.
The skiing
The SkiArena as a whole offers 180 km of pistes and 22 lifts, with skiing between roughly 1,441 m and 2,963 m. The top height is the standout figure. At close to 3,000 m the upper slopes are about as snow-sure as anywhere in the Alps without a glacier, and the 1,500 m of vertical means long, sustained descents rather than short laps. The ratio of 180 km to 22 lifts is also telling: this is an area of long runs and long lifts, where a single ride can open up a great deal of skiing.
The lift network is modern, which matters on an area spread across a high pass between two valleys. For intermediates the linked area rewards a full week, with the journey across the Oberalp to Andermatt and back a natural day out. Stronger skiers will value the altitude and the scale, and the high terrain holds its snow late into the December to April season. Twenty-two lifts for 180 km also means the area is not over-engineered; the skiing is spread across broad terrain rather than packed into a small, lift-heavy zone.
Village and setting
Sedrun’s appeal off the slopes is its character. It is a traditional Grisons village in a scenic, high valley, and being at the far western edge of the canton gives it a sense of remoteness that the busier side of the SkiArena does not share. Visitors who want a lively resort centre should look elsewhere; those who want a genuine village with a big ski area on the doorstep will find it a good match. The Oberalp Pass itself is part of the scenery, a high crossing between two cantons that the skiing straddles.
Practical notes
Zurich is the nearest airport listed, roughly 88 km away as the crow flies, although the road and rail journey into the Surselva is longer than that suggests. The season runs from December to April. The municipality of Tujetsch maintains the resort’s official website.
