Crestasee offers an array of activities for you to enjoy. From swimming in the crystal clear waters, to hiking along trails for nature-lovers, this destination has something to offer everyone. It's possible to rent SUPs, kayaks and boats from the nearby kiosk, or just take a leisurely swim for those who aren't looking for an adrenaline rush. During the summer months you should take advantage of the restaurant near the northern shore of the lake, where you can experience some traditional Swiss cuisine with an amazing view. If you're up for a hike, you can try the one from Flims Waldhaus (6.3km, 256m elevation gain, moderately challenging, 2h to complete) or you can combine it with visiting Caumasee.
