Stand Up Paddling doesn't end with summer. In autumn, the Swiss mountain lakes show their most beautiful side: emerald green, crystal clear and framed by golden larch trees. With an ultralight SUP in your backpack, you can discover places that are only accessible on foot – and experience the vastness of nature from a whole new perspective.
Crestasee – small but mighty
The somewhat secluded Cresta Lake , nestled in the woods near Flims, is considered one of the most beautiful lakes in Switzerland. It's small but mighty – with emerald green water and a unique atmosphere. In autumn, when the leaves glow golden, the lake unfolds its very special charm. Its crystal-clear water invites you to paddle leisurely.
Boarding point: At the Crestasee beach (Bus: Trin-Mulin, Crestassee)
Obersee Arosa – Alpine scenery in the heart of the village
The Obersee lake in Arosa is located in the middle of the village – and yet offers a magnificent alpine backdrop . Ideal if you want to go straight into the water after a hike, without having to travel long distances.
In autumn, the lake is less crowded, and the clear air and mountain peaks in the background create a unique panorama while stand-up paddling.
Entry points: Various locations around the lake
Heidsee – golden larch trees and clear mountain air
Located at an altitude of 1,500 meters, the Heidsee in Lenzerheide is a hotspot for outdoor enthusiasts. In autumn, the surrounding area transforms: golden larch trees , fresh mountain air and wide panoramas invite you to a relaxing SUP session.
The Heidsee is easily accessible and ideal for anyone who wants to combine hiking and paddling.
