The Grisons have been known of old for their lakes, rivers and brooks providing rich fishing grounds. Everywhere at the many different altitudes of this multiform mountain area, streams large and small and quiet lakes promise the most beautiful catches.

Nature dealt her gifts to the Grisons with incomparable generosity: a widespread web of water bodies gathering from countless, wild mountain brooks and small, gurgling streams into ebulient rivers.

Without exageration the fishing opportunities presenting themselves in this alpine wonderland may be called inexhaustible: enticing, hidden banks, quiet and peaceful coves along dreamy mountain lakes, brooks playfully meandering through meadows and forests, and torrents roaringly flowing into the valley. They all compound the leisurely fisher's and hiker's excitement and delight.

This text which in the 1950ies appeared in the brochure "Sportfishing in the Grisons" still holds true today.

St. Moritz, the Engadine, even all of the Grisons is deemed a veritable fisher's paradise. This is a unique fishing range in Europe standing at your disposal. Whether in one of the 460 mountain lakes of the Grisons or along the banks of the lake of St. Moritz: our waters are replete with mountain trout, perch, char and many others. The fishing season in the Upper Engadine opens at the beginning of May and ends in mid September. Fishing licenses for a day or a week are available at reasonable prices.
