About Scuol
Scuol is the capital of the Lower Engadine, a Romansh-speaking ski and spa resort of around 4,600 people at about 1,300 metres. Its healing springs were used on a larger scale from about 1860, and the Bogn Engiadina bath opened in 1993 to revive the spa trade. Since 2015 the municipality has taken in Ftan, Sent, Guarda, Ardez and Tarasp, making it the largest in Switzerland by area. Our homes cluster tightly around the town, mostly small apartments, some with a garden. Mineral water can be drunk straight from the village well. Winter is for Motta Naluns; summer is for walking in the side valleys, with the Swiss National Park a top excursion.
Is Scuol right for you?
- Best for
- Spa breaks, walking and quieter skiing in the Lower Engadine

Yes, if you want a spa day. Bogn Engiadina has indoor and outdoor pools with bubble loungers and a Roman-Irish bath and sauna area. The Guest Card PLUS discounts admission from one overnight stay, and it also gives free public transport.
How big is the Motta Naluns ski area at Scuol?
Motta Naluns covers about 80 km of slopes with 12 lifts, on the southern face towards Piz Champatsch at 2,785 metres. That is a modest area, better for relaxed skiing than for racking up distance.
