The serene Alpine lakes Champfer and Silvaplana lie below the stately Suvretta House, a 1912 mountain resort reopened this year with 181 refurbished rooms. Guests can take a chairlift above the Engadine Valley for mountain hikes, descend to walks along the chain of lakes threading the valley or just work up an appetite en route to two chalet restaurants run by the Suvretta House. Glaciers above and lakes below provide a scenic backdrop to tennis matches on the resort’s clay courts, swims in the outdoor pool or time out on lounge chairs scattered across the lawn. Rates from 660 Swiss francs, or about $660, including breakfast; suvrettahouse.ch.
