This highest town in Europe, Davos, has kicked off the most awaited World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting 2025. The lineup looks grand with the most rich and powerful people in the world marking their presence. The town has a permanent population of approximately 10,000 residents, but it attracts visitors year-round, particularly skiing enthusiasts during the winter season.
However, it experiences its highest influx of people during the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting, when the population swells significantly. But there is so much more than just skiing. Davos, nestled in the Swiss Alps, offers a blend of natural beauty, cultural activities, and adventurous experiences.
So, here are the six experiences you shouldn’t miss when visiting Davos and its surrounding areas: 1.

Those also offer a variety of skiing types—from beginner to advanced.
Winter marks the ideal time for downhill skiing, snowboarding, or cross-country skiing on pristine snow trails. 2. Visit the Kirchner Museum Real art lovers will absolutely love the Kirchner Museum, which is a building dedicated to works by expressionist painter Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, whose bright, full-of-vivid-colours paintings were a very real reflection of this modern age but in a quite serene alpine setting.
