Villas in Lenzerheide
Lenzerheide suits families who want a lake, 225 km of linked slopes with Arosa and an apartment for about four. A fair number of homes have a fireplace. The trade-off is the main road: the Chur to Tiefencastel route runs straight through the valley and the village.

About Lenzerheide
Lenzerheide sits at roughly 1,450 to 1,600 metres in a high valley at the foot of the Parpaner Rothorn, with Valbella at its northern end and the Heidsee lake between the two. It grew from summer pastures: the first hotel opened in 1882, Nietzsche stayed in 1887, and the first ski lifts followed in 1942. Nearly all the homes we list sit within about a kilometre of each other, mostly apartments and small chalets. The Rothorn cable car climbs towards the area's top at 2,865 metres, and the Urdenbahn joins the slopes to Arosa. Beyond skiing there is a large natural ice rink, an indoor pool, 56 km of cross-country trails and, in summer, an 18-hole golf course.

- Best for

Lenzerheide villa holidays: questions answered
Is Lenzerheide good for families?
Yes. The Heidsee has a free lido with a climbing wall and pirate ship, the ski area has children's lifts, and there is a floodlit toboggan run down to the Rothorn valley station. Most homes suit about four people.
Do you need a car in Lenzerheide?
No. PostAuto line 182 runs from Chur every 30 minutes and takes about 40 minutes. A car is handier for exploring, but winter roads can ice up, so many visitors come by train and bus.
Which airport is best for Lenzerheide?
Zurich, about two hours by car for roughly 150 km. By public transport, take the train to Chur and the PostAuto up; the whole trip takes about two hours twenty five minutes.
Is Lenzerheide good in summer?
Yes for biking and walking. There are over 250 km of marked bike routes, 170 km of walking paths, an 18-hole golf course and watersports on the Heidsee, where the water sports centre hires kayaks and paddleboards.
Lenzerheide or Arosa?
Lenzerheide is on the main road between Chur and Tiefencastel, with a lake, golf and cross-country trails. Arosa is at the end of its own valley road and railway. The Urdenbahn joins the two ski areas, so one pass covers both.
