About Bever
Bever has about 580 residents and lies at the foot of Crasta Mora; the lowest point of the municipality, on the Inn, is about 1,690 metres. It has a Rhaetian Railway station, a Volg supermarket with a post office, and the Bever Lodge, described as the first modular hotel built entirely of wood. A large project has been restoring the Inn floodplains since 2012. The Val Bever side valley is used for hiking, cycling and cross-country skiing, and the hamlet of Spinas, at the south portal of the Albula tunnel, is largely car-free. Our homes are all within the village, mostly small and mostly with a garden. It is a small village, so expect quiet evenings.
