Join me on a breathtaking journey through two of Switzerland’s most stunning alpine lakes —Lake Cauma (Caumasee) and Lake Cresta (Crestasee) nestled in the heart of the Swiss canton of Graubünden near the town of Flims.
Lake Cauma (Caumasee)
Lake Cauma is famous for its turquoise waters especially vivid in summer. Surrounded by pine forests and mountains, it feels like a tropical paradise in the middle of the Alps. It offers more facilities like a lift down to the lake, restaurants, and water activities — great for families or day-trippers.
Lake Cresta (Crestasee)
Tucked away in a peaceful forest, Lake Cresta is known for its crystal-clear waters, serene atmosphere and unspoiled natural surroundings. It’s smaller and quieter than Cauma, making it perfect for those seeking tranquility, a refreshing swim, or a scenic picnic.
Best Time to Visit
The ideal time to explore both lakes is from late May to early September, when the water is warm enough for swimming and the colors are at their most vibrant. Early mornings or weekdays are best to avoid crowds and truly enjoy the peace of nature.
Located just minutes apart, both lakes can be visited in a single day — offering a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and natural beauty.
