Ditch the car should you so desire – or indeed, arrive here deftly on foot on a Swiss trek, as the walkers' paradise site of Camping Cavresc is only five minutes from its local train station. Families, couples and intrepid solitary explorers all flock to this tiptop place among the Swiss Alps, for hols of a hiking sort as well as watersports of all sorts in the glacial waters of spectacular Lake Poschiavo 300 metres away (you really can ditch the car while at Cavresc should you so desire). Both outdoorsy picks will have you pitching up among mighty pretty mountain surroundings, plentiful facilities and spotless amenities – leading to accolades like 'fantastic', 'absolute gem', 'stunning' and 'beautiful' made about the site by its gratified guests. Camping Cavresc is under 10 minutes' drive from the town of Poschiavo, in the Bernina Region of Switzerland's canton of Graubünden, among rivers, valleys, glaciers and mountains. It's a friendly place with excellent facilities and amenities, including an outdoor pool, a play area, table tennis, a TV room, and a garden with loads of room to wander, run around or play. There's a bar-restaurant for meals, drinks and light bites too, to have in the comely indoor setting or out in the garden among views of greenery and Swiss Alps. Takeaway is also available, and barbecues are allowed.

Liked We booked this place for closeness to the lake and to the train station. We stayed here 4 nights. Used the train to get the Bernina Express. Amazing.
The lake was magical. We walked around it and had lunch at the bottom of the lake, half way around. 4.5 miles in total. As traveling with a dog we spent time in the lake too. Half franc coins needed for the shower.

Disliked Flies. Noise from the play area.

Liked Il posto, la tranquillità, la civiltà degli ospiti.

Disliked Mi è piaciuto tutto, certamente c'è da segnalare agli ospiti che nel campeggio non c'è bar, nè punto ristoro, dunque chi campeggia in tenda è bene che sia munito di occorrente per un caffè!

Liked Szép táj, hegyek a közelben, hegyi folyó a camping mellett.
Közel fut a legendás vasút -vonal!
Kicsi, de tiszta WC és tusoló.
Valódi melegvíz egész nap( igaz csak pénzbedobásos tusoló).
A campingezők kedvesek, barátságosak voltak.

Disliked Nagy zaj szinte egész nap kora reggeltől késő estig a camping közvetlen szomszédságában levő és napi szinten működő mezőgazdasági üzem, farm miatt! Gépzúgás, traktorok, munkagépek jöttek-mentek, dízel-füst, dízel szag egész nap! Mindez a távbortól kb 20-30 méterre! Kb.10 méterre a tábortól egy karámban, egyébként aranyos, kecskéket tartottak, de emiatt rengeteg volt a légy! Abnormálisan sok légy volt! Az internetes ismertetőben a mezőgazdasági üzem, a traktorok, az egész napos gépzaj NEM szerepelt!! Az egyetlen szeméttárolót közvetlenül a sátorverésre kijelölt hely mellé telepítették, az ott töltött 5 nap alatt egyszer sem nem ürítették, (kivéve az üres üveges tartályt), gusztustalan, rendezetlen volt.
Mindez jelentősen rontotta az egyébként szép tájban levő camping élvezhetőségét!
Én kb. 1000 km-t autóztam oda, ugyanennyit vissza, hogy évek óta dédelgetett tervemet megvalósítsam hogy a gyönyörű Svájc ezen gyönyörű szegletében sátorozhassak, de nem ilyen viszonyokra számítottam. 170 svájci frank volt 4 éjszakára a sátorhely. Nem túl sok, de annyira nem is kevés.
Ez most sajnos csalódás volt. Ha előre tudom mindezt, nem ide jöttem volna.

Liked Unkompliziert und einfach aber sehr sauber. Da viele auf der Durchreise sind und nur ein zwei Tage bleiben, ist eine Reservation nicht unbedingt erforderlich. Es hat meistens noch Platz.

Disliked Das W-LAN funktionierte nicht mehr nach 2 Tagen

Local attractions

The deep blue glacial waters of lovely Lago di Poschiavo are within a couple of minutes' meander from the site for spectacular scenery and lakeside hikes. Woodland trails are close by too: ask the Camping Cavresc team for info on the best routes. Local town Poschiavo is connected to the Alps region of Engadin and the rest of Switzerland via the Bernina Pass, the high mountain pass linking the Poschiavo valley and St Moritz. To traverse it in splendid style, take the Bernina Express tourist train running all year round between Chur and Tirano; it's the highest railway route in Europe at 2,253 metres, so get pics aplenty to show off later. At the foot of the Bernina mountain range, about half an hour's drive from the site, the glacier mills area of Cavaglia is also mighty pretty for pics and trekking around. Access it 400 metres from the Cavaglia station of the Rhaetian Railway, either under your own steam or on a guided tour available from June to October.
