The idyllic Val Sinestra is a small side valley of the Lower Engadine. The valley is known, among other things, for its mineral springs. The healing water was once used to relieve nervous disorders or anemia; the first spa house was built at the end of the 19th century. Today the impressive house serves as a hotel. The healing water is no longer used because it is now known that it has too high arsenic content.
