Swiss National Park is the only national park in Switzerland, located in Graubünden canton.
It is one of the oldest national parks in Europe. It is one of 18 nature parks in Switzerland, but the only national park. With an area of 174.2 km² it is the largest protected area of the country.
In the park, it's not allowed to leave marked paths, light a fire or sleep outside the Chamanna Cluozza hut. It is also forbidden to disturb animals or plants, or to take home anything found in the park. Dogs are not allowed, even on a leash. Due to these strict rules, the park is the only one in the Alps which has been categorized by the IUCN as a strict nature reserve, the highest protection level.
