Silvaplana See is a glacial alpine lake located in the Upper Engadin Valley of southeastern Switzerland (Graubünden region). The lake is surrounded by steep forested terrain and residential development, with a south-facing main shoreline. The distinctive turquoise coloration indicates glacial meltwater with suspended sediment typical of alpine lakes. Wind conditions are severely limited, with only 0.1% reliability and an average of just 4.5 knots, making consistent kitesurfing challenging. Water temperatures remain cold year-round (averaging 4.6°C), requiring appropriate thermal protection. The lake offers a relatively protected environment suitable for learning in light winds, but the combination of low wind frequency, cold water, and surrounding development limits its viability as a regular kitesurfing destination. Best conditions occur when easterly or westerly winds develop, providing side-shore alignment. This spot is best suited for local residents seeking flat-water practice in minimal wind rather than a dedicated kitesurfing venue.
