The Engadine & surrounding valleys is a wonderful place for hiking, I often visit there. The lakes in the photo are (from top) Silsersee, Silvaplanasee and St Moritzersee. The River Inn has it's source in Silsersee, I believe.
The valley to the left (behind the intake,not top lhs of pic) goes over the Bernina Pass and down through Val Poschiavo to Tirano (Italy).
Take the Rhaetische Bahn (railway)from Samedan along the valley to the right of the airfield over the Albula Pass, it is one of the most scenic railway journeys on the planet!

Excellent!. Thanks for the info, guys. We were en route Kefalonia-Manchester, mainly 8/8 below us, when like the parting of the waves the cloud suddenly started to break, and there it was below us.
Thanks again.
