Transfer from Zurich Airport to Davos
The journey traverses Switzerland's northern lowlands before ascending into the Appenzell Alps, skirting the blue waters of Walensee Lake as the landscape steepens. You'll pass through Chur, Switzerland's oldest city, before entering the dramatic Prättigau valley where meadows and forested peaks signal your approach to the mountain resort.
Your driver meets you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of your landing terminal at Zurich Airport, holding a name sign. The 158 km drive typically takes just over two hours; traffic from the airport and congestion around Zurich's northern exits can add 15–20 minutes during peak hours (7–9 am, 4–6 pm weekdays). Davos sits at 1,560 metres elevation, so expect cooler temperatures and Alpine weather even in summer.
Public trains take 2 hours 20 minutes but require advance booking and transfers between stations; buses are slower and less frequent. Taxis from Zurich Airport charge CHF 350–450 for this distance, with no fixed price guarantee. A private transfer eliminates navigation stress in unfamiliar mountain terrain, includes all motorway vignette fees, and arrives directly at your Davos accommodation or chosen drop-off point—a decisive advantage on a lengthy Alpine crossing.
