The Prättigau is a valley region in the canton of Grisons, Switzerland, formed by the main valley of the Landquart river and the side valleys of its tributary streams. The Landquart drains into the Alpine Rhine at the town of Landquart, and the region's upper end holds the ski resorts of Klosters; tourism has largely replaced the area's traditional lumber industry.
