Parc Ela (Switzerland) conquers with the beauty of its nature. Its area is 548 square kilometers, a third of which is pristine natural landscape. Here you can see many mountain peaks, for example, Piz Lungino, famous for the fact that rivers carry water from its summit to three oceans. There is also an amazing mountain plateau of Alps Flix, stunning in its biological diversity - there are more than 2000 species of animals and plants on it.

The cultural landscape is shaped by historic transport routes, powerful fortresses and traditional 19th century villages that have retained their special charm. Parc Ela occupies almost a third of the part of Switzerland where three cultures and three languages (German, Italian and Swiss Romansh) meet.

Parc Ela is also crossed by a section of the famous Rhaetian Railway, which is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List - the legendary "Red Train" that passes through this section demonstrates the harmonious relationship between man and nature.
