The well-maintained scenic village in the midst of a fascinating mountain landscape, the wide range of sports, leisure, and relaxation offers in the Davos/Klosters holiday region, and the varied possibilities for excursions by Rhaetian Railway to the only Swiss national park and to the Engadine explain why the commune of Klosters-Serneus is able to count on an international clientele.
