Description
|
Flims,
the famous ski resort, is located on the left side
of the Rhein Gorges in the Graubünden canton.
Flims-Waldhaus is select suburb of Flims with a
beaufitul forest and in the bottom of a basin, in
the middle of the forest, is hidden the wonderful
Cauma lake (Caumasee in german, Lag la Cauma in
Romans) with green water. This lovely place is frozen
in winter and is a swimming area otherwise. Unfortunately
the lake in surrounded by a large wire netting all
around its periphery and you have to pay to access
to the lake!
In 1937 a funicular was built to access the Cauma
Lake from the path which goes to Flims-Waldhaus.
Recently the funicular was rebuilt by Niederberger
as a two parallel tracks funicular. It is now a
free automatic lift. |
