Switzerland Plaun da Lej
Plaun da Lej is a beautiful spot on the shores of Lake Sils in the Engadin region, offering stunning views over the crystal-clear waters and the surrounding mountain peaks. This small boat dock is perfect for capturing classic Swiss alpine scenes, especially when one of the white excursion boats is docked or passing by, adding a touch of life to the tranquil landscape.
Photography Tips
Use the boats as a foreground element to add scale and depth to your composition. A polarizer can help reduce reflections on the water, while a wide-angle lens captures the full sweep of the lake and surrounding peaks. Sunrise and sunset are ideal for soft, colorful light.
Travel Information
Plaun da Lej is easily accessible by car, with nearby parking available. The dock is just a short walk from the main road, making it a convenient stop for photographers exploring the Engadin region.
