Sedrun welcomes all visitors. The locals greet each other with a friendly ‘bien di, buna sera’ or ‘bien onn’, in keeping with Romansh tradition.

Despite significant changes in recent years, Romansh remains the official language. Fortunately, the village has largely managed to preserve its identity and its unique language. Numerous individuals and organisations cultivate these cultural values with great love and commitment. Sedrun is located in the highest part of the Surselva. The Oberalp Pass connects the Tujetsch Valley with the Uri Valley. The cradle of the Rhine, Lake Toma, is located in its territory. For years, the mountain population lived from agriculture. The construction of artificial lakes and the exploitation of hydroelectric power in the 1960s brought major changes. The abundant water resources made it possible to improve the infrastructure and introduce winter tourism. In winter, a large ski area attracts visitors from near and far. In summer, there are numerous opportunities for easy or challenging mountain hikes and bike rides. The Lag Claus swimming lake in Surrein, which opened in 2012, also invites everyone to cool off or relax. The wonderful landscape is its greatest asset. This location has always been threatened by landslides from the Drun. This is also where the name Sedrun comes from, formerly Surdargun (1483), which means ‘below the dargun’ (on the stream). Sedrun is now the capital of the municipality of Tujetsch. The village is divided into two parts, Sedrun and Gionda, by the Drun stream. Gionda is home to the town hall, the school and the Dulezi sports field, while Sedrun has the parish church, the La Truaisch museum and the wellness oasis.
