Town of Wiesen
The idyllic Walser town of Wiesen is located on a sun terrace (elev. 1450) between the popular holiday resorts Davos and Lenzerheide.

Thanks to its central location in the canton of Grisons, Wiesen is easily reached from the lowlands and at the same time an ideal point of departure to see a variety of attractions throughout Grisons.
The town itself offers - apart from an intact and wildly romantic natural landscape - many sights to see which all have their own appeal during the different seasons.

Wiesner Alp

A wonderful mountain pasture hut with breathtaking panorama views onto the heart of Parc Ela and its many well preserved sun-browned wooden stables and huts, some of which has been converted to weekend cabins. A large fire destroyed 14 huts in November 2007; however, they will be rebuilt.

Wiesner viaduct
The imposing railway viaduct along the Filisur-Davos line is 88 metres high and the highest and largest viaduct throughout the Rhätische Bahn?s railway network. It is a part of the nature trail and accessible via a secured foot path.

Zügen gorge

It used to be the cantonal road and connecting path to the region to Davos. The wildly romantic gorge boasts many surprising railway constructions of the RhB line, a signalled rock nature trail as well as a mining museum at Schmelzboden.

Wiesen church
The late gothic church has beautiful mural paintings in the nave and a well preserved organ and is definitely worth a visit.

Wiesen village museum

The village museum is located in the house "süessa Wichel" on Obergass. The exhibition at the local history museum boasts an authentic Wiesen farmhouse parlour with rooms, kitchen and weaving room of the 19th century as well as interesting rotating exhibitions.

Climate & allergies
Many children at Muchetta have already recuperated from allergies or asthma. Numerous medical studies have proven the beneficial effects of the region.

Proven by medical studies
The small mountain village is located on a sun terrace and popular for its mild and dry climate. It offers the ideal environment for a successful cure or sustained prevention. The annual amount of precipitation in Wiesen equals about two-thirds of that in Zurich. The concurrence of this low amount of precipitation and lots of sunshine results in the fact that the relative humidity is low.

The climate is very mild as a result of the combination of the south-east exposition of the town on a sun terrace overlooking the Landwasser gorge and the elevation of 1450 metres above sea level.

For over 130 years, researchers have monitored the climate and air quality at Wiesen and have documented the local climate in various reports and studies.

Here you will find a climate report.

Do's and Don'ts
Our short list of rules which serves to contribute to the wellbeing of our guests and to a relaxed atmosphere.

  • For years, the entire children's hotel Muchetta has been non-smoking. Cigarette breaks can be taken on the terrace of the restaurant and there is an ashtray on every balcony.
  • Similar to a kindergarten or a school, we do NOT care for sick children. Children are ill if they have a fever or gastrointestinal complaints. In this case, we require the parents to care to the child. Good, open communication in the event of illnesses helps avoid spreading diseases.
  • Pets are not allowed at Muchetta. As a result of the good climate, an increasing number of children with asthma or other breathing difficulties and allergies are spending their holidays with us.
  • Wellness: the entire wellness area is reserved for adults from 6:30 p.m. The use of the sauna and steam bath is also reserved for the adults.
  • The children's hotel has an informal and very child-friendly atmosphere. We abide by the most important rules for living together, are careful and take consideration of others.
