Chur 9 January 2020

Chur is the capital of the canton of Grisons and is one of the oldest towns in Switzerland. Chur is 600 metres above sea level and surrounded by the Alps. Chur's old town has been restored and is now mostly free of cars. The high plateau of Brambruesch is reached by a cable car and offers walking and biking in summer and skiing in winter. We spent a night in Chur before boarding the Glacier Express the next afternoon. We had some time in the morning to wander around the old town and use the cable car to visit Brambruesch for our first experience of snow.
