Switzerland

Day 1

• The arrival in St. Moritz is individual. We meet at 12:30 PM at the hotel. After a brief introduction, we head to Lake Sils, where we photograph the golden larch forests in the afternoon sun. We explore various photo spots until dusk. In the evening, we reflect on the day over a shared dinner and prepare for the days ahead.

Day 2

• Today we start early. After breakfast at the hotel, we head to Lake Staz for sunrise. This small lake is located not far from St. Moritz, nestled in the Stazer Forest. With a bit of luck, we’ll witness fog drifting over the lake, giving the scene a mystical touch. From Lake Staz, we start our excursion to the upper Puschlav. From the parking lot in Sfazu, we take a minibus along a dirt road to Val da Camp. There, we find Lake Saoseo, one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in Switzerland. After a short walk, we reach the deep blue lake, nestled in a golden larch forest. In the late afternoon, we return to Sfazu by bus. On our way back to St. Moritz, we may visit another photo spot, depending on the weather and time.

Day 3

• Today we drive to Lake Palpuogna for the sunrise. When there is no wind, the trees and the snow-covered mountains are reflected in the lake, creating wonderful photo opportunities. We warm up again at the hotel with a late breakfast.
  In the afternoon we go to the Morteratschtal. The larches appear like gold in the light backlight. The imposing mountains with the glacier in the foreground offer more fantastic photo opportunities.

Day 4

• Den Sonnenaufgang planen wir heute am Silsersee. In der Region des Plaun da Lej gibt es verschiedenste tolle Motive. Nach einem ausgiebigen Frühstück geht’s dann Richtung Maloja. Auf dem Plan steht heute der weniger bekannte Cavloc See. Bereits auf dem zirka 2 Kilometer langen Fussmarsch begegnen wir immer wieder schönen Motiven. Der See selbst ist eingebettet in ein kleines Hochtal umgeben von den Bündner 3’000ern.

Day 5

• Depending on the weather, we will revisit a previously visited location for the last sunrise of the week. We will conclude the workshop around noon in St. Moritz.

Depending on the weather or other conditions, the specific photo locations may be swapped. The workshop leader reserves the right to make adjustments.

To get in the mood for the photo tour, you can watch the video from our last trip to the Engadine under the «Videos» section.
