Arosa on the ground: arrival, layout, reality
You reach Arosa on the winding road or by train from Chur — both end right in the village by the Obersee. The ski area links to Lenzerheide, while the village itself stays small and family-oriented. There are no cannabis outlets.
The legal situation for visitors in canton Grisons
Switzerland-wide: cannabis containing more than 1% THC is illegal. Adults aged 18+ carrying up to 10 grams for personal use normally receive a 100-franc fixed penalty with no criminal proceedings. Selling, sharing and growing remain punishable — including between friends in a chalet. Cannabis below 1% THC, which is what we deliver, does not fall under the Narcotics Act and is freely tradeable.
Grisons is a border canton with heavy transit towards Italy and Austria, so cantonal police are visible on roads and trains. Adults carrying up to 10 grams receive the 100-franc fixed penalty. Moving illegally sourced cannabis between resorts is exactly what triggers that fine — legally bought CBD below 1% THC does not.
Delivery to Arosa
Parcels arrive by train and are delivered normally in the village: hotels by the Obersee, Innerarosa and the holiday flats along Poststrasse are all served.
You do not need a permanent address — only an address in Arosa where you can receive the parcel during your stay.
- Give the full address — Name of the property, 'c/o your name, room/flat XY', street, postcode and town.
- Tell reception briefly — One sentence at check-in stops the parcel from going back as undeliverable.
- Neutral packaging — No logo, no product reference, no smell — an ordinary parcel from the outside.
- Timing before departure — Order at least two working days before check-out, or redirect the parcel to a pick-up point.
How to order as a visitor in Arosa
The process is built for travellers: no registered address, no Swiss social security number, no Swiss ID. Your membership stays active after you leave — next time you are in Arosa, order with the same account and a new delivery address.
- 1. Sign up free + age verification — About two minutes. A valid passport or ID card is enough — foreign documents included.
- 2. Enter your address in Arosa — Hotel, chalet, holiday flat or apartment in Arosa. All that matters is that you can receive the parcel there.
- 3. Order from the current drops — The member area shows available batches with lab values, terpene profile and price per gram.
- 4. Get a discreet delivery — Neutral packaging, normally the day after dispatch.
Prices: member conditions, no resort mark-up
In a resort almost everything costs more than in the lowlands — not with us. The price depends on the batch and on member conditions, not on where your hotel is. Because we produce in Sarnen and ship directly to members, the retail margin simply is not there.
Membership is free: no fee, no minimum order, no notice period. For every batch you see the certificate of analysis and the price per gram before ordering.
Altitude, sport and effects in Arosa
Arosa sits at around 1775 metres. At altitude several factors change how cannabis feels: lower oxygen saturation, dry air, cold, physical effort and usually too little water. With little experience, dose lower on day one and wait.
On the slopes, on rock and behind the wheel one rule applies: do not combine. Reaction time and risk judgement matter, and road traffic law enforces zero tolerance for THC regardless of when you consumed.
Christmas to late February and the summer holidays are peak. When ordering before arrival, give the full hotel name — several properties here have similar ones.
THC: what is possible today and what is not
The honest answer for visitors: there is no legal way for a tourist to buy THC cannabis in Switzerland. The approved pilot projects in Zurich, Basel, Bern and other cities require residency in that municipality plus enrolment in the study. Medical cannabis requires a Swiss prescription.
What is legal and available right now: Swiss indoor cannabis below 1% THC, lab-tested, with the full terpene profile and cannabinoid values you can see before buying. The planned Cannabis Products Act (CanPG) could open access in the medium term, and existing members would be first in line. We promise neither a date nor a price.
