Climate

The weather in June is generally stable, with expected daily temperatures of 14-20°C, although on a sunny day the perceived temperature is much higher. However, with its location at 1560m above sea level temperature variations are wide and sudden: as soon as the sun sets the temperature drops, and the weather can change very quickly, becoming chilly, rainy and even snowy!

Latest local weather can be found on the Davos website.

Exercise

Davos is a paradise for sport-lovers. If you enjoy spending time in the nature, do not miss the opportunity to bring walking boots to go for mountain walks. Joggers and runners should definitely bring running trainers. The Davos lake has a 4 Km fairly flat path around it. Everywhere else is uphill 🙂 and there are excellent mountain paths for trail runners. Please visit the Davos Tourism website to find walks and runs for all fitness levels.
