Samedan is a village in the Upper Engadine valley of the canton of Graubunden, set at 1,720 metres altitude in a high Alpine basin ringed by 3,000-metre peaks, where bicarbonate-rich naturally carbonated spring waters have been historically used by the local Romansh-speaking community in a valley that also possesses the highest-altitude civilian airport in Europe. Its bicarbonate mineral spring waters filter through the ancient crystalline basement of the Silvretta and Bernina massifs, producing a naturally soft water of exceptional purity in one of Switzerland's highest and most pristine inhabited valleys. The village of Samedan preserves the Romansh cultural traditions of the Upper Engadine — including the characteristic sgraffiti decoration of stone farmhouse facades, the Ladin language distinct from both standard Romansh and Italian, and centuries of mountain pastoral heritage unique in the Swiss Alps.
