The Dürrboden is an alp and is located in the rear Dischma south of Davos in the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland . The hamlet is located on a historic mule route, the " Via Valtellina ", on which wine from the Valtellina was brought to the north via the Scalettapass .
The paths from the Scalettapass and the Grialetschpass meet here in the rearmost valley floor of the Dischma . Today a road leads to the alp. There is a parking lot at the end of the street. In summer the Alp is served by a bus.
There is a historic mountain inn on the Alp, which was expanded with a new building in the 1970s. The mountain inn is open in summer and operates an SOS telephone in winter, as mobile phone reception is limited in the valley.
