Do you really know Klosters?



I have admired the landscape for my entire life. The beauty of nature is all around us at all times, but there are brief moments when a combination of elements present themselves in a truly spectacular way. Anybody who is fortunate enough to witnesses one of these events will look back fondly upon the memory. And they are even more fortunate if they happen to have a camera ready to record the event. In order to be in the right place at the right time, it is necessary to understand the complex interactions between light, weather, landscape, plants, and animals.



The landscape around Klosters can be quite spectacular, although the town is mostly known for its skiing opportunities and the corresponding infrastructure like cablecars, slopes, mountain restaurants and the like. But there is much more to this mountain-valley than most visitors are aware of.



The purpose of this book is to share some of the beauty that can be found around Klosters with the visitors who neither have the time nor the opportunity to venture out into the surrounding landscape or to visit the area outside of the skiing-season.
