Flims: What Awaits You
Flims is the upmarket anchor of the LAAX/Flims/Falera ski domain. The Rhine Gorge (Ruinaulta) — the 'Swiss Grand Canyon' — a 13-km canyon carved through the Flims Rockslide debris, offers summer rafting and rim hiking. The Caumasee's turquoise waters and the historic Waldhaus Flims hotel (since 1877) anchor the village's refined alpine character.
