Davos – The Highest City in Europe

Last weekend we visited one of the most famous ski and touristic destinations in Switzerland – Davos. Thanks to high altitude about 1500 m, Davos provided us an opportunity to escape from the tropical temperatures which dominated last week in Europe. We could enjoy great weather with clear blue sky ideal to make some great landscape pictures. As we are still waiting for upcoming Canon EF 16-35mm F4 IS USM lens, we mostly used our fastest prime lens Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM.
Our first trip was up to the Rinerhorn, where we spent almost entire day. It’s very easily accessible with the cable car even with the baby carriage. We did a short 7km hike with our small boy.

Taking a funicular from center of Davos led us to Schatzalp, originally a sanatorium for tuberculosis, nowadays a prominent Hotel. It’s a beautiful view point over the entire valley with the dominance of Jakobshorn mountain peak.
