Our apartment is located in Vignogn, nearby Vella, which is the administrative center of Val Lumnezia ("Valley of the Light"). Val Lumnezia is part of the Surselva region, which belongs to the Kanton of Graubunden.

Val Lumnezia is one of the most beautiful -though luckily touristically unknown- valleys of the Swiss Alps. Due to the north-south positioning, the valley is known for its soft and sunny (blue sky) climate. The valley is less touristic than other Swiss mountain areas as it lacks transit traffic. The local Swiss call it often the area for "small but exquisite tourism".

The local population in general speaks fluently German and even English / French or Italian.

One of the oldest Swiss city Chur is within 40 minutes drive, Zurich within 1 hour 20 minutes and Basel within 2 hours drive.

Our apartment is about 1 hour 20 minutes from Zurich and 2 hours drive from Basel.

Vignogn, Val Lumnezia is easily reachable by airplane (Basel / Zurich), car or public transport (train, bus). Two minutes away from the apartment is a small buss stop with major connections to Ilanz/Chur.
