The idyllic Lake Silvaplana in the Upper Engadine is a well-known gem among international kite surfers. It was here where kitesurfing was invented.

Europe’s highest water sports paradise acquired cult status thanks to the legendary Maloja wind. As soon as it starts blowing around lunchtime, the colourful kites start dancing above Lake Silvaplana, surrounded by majestic mountains and snow-covered peaks.
To learn the technique in a quick and correct way, water sports enthusiasts should book a few lessons at the Swiss Kitesurf School Silvaplana.
