Excursions
There is no additional fee for the excursions (also for accompanying persons) if you stay in a Hotel in Davos, as you will be issued a Davos Guest Card that is valid as transport pass. Participation is at your own risk. Bring your hiking boots, warm clothes and your Davos Guest Card. The number of participants is limited so sign up early!
