点评:I am writing to share a severe incident that occurred on 30 July 2026, during the 15:45 departure from Val Roseg (Hotel Roseg Gletscher) to Pontresina, operated by Wohlis Kutschbetrieb (Engadin Kutschen).
I was traveling with my elderly mother, which was our only reason for taking carriage transport. Before departure, I was already deeply shocked to see that two additional full-sized carriages had been hitched behind the main omnibus vehicle shown on their website. Instead of operating a single carriage, three horses were forced to pull three connected vehicles carrying nearly 60 passengers, including children, during peak summer heat. In this region, private carriages with 2 horses carry around 4 people, making it incomprehensible how 3 horses were forced to haul nearly 60.
During the journey, the extreme weight and high temperature caused one of the horses to collapse on the trail. The scene was heartbreaking—I cannot forget the sheer exhaustion in the horse's eyes as his body gave out. What made it even more appalling was the total silence of the crowd, as no one spoke up. Because of the shock and not having my phone on me, I could not take photos, but the collapse happened in full view of everyone on board.
Throughout the trip, the young driver was continuously distracted, talking on her mobile phone and chatting with a child seated beside her. Rather than taking precautions given the heat and heavy load, she repeatedly forced the horses to run, directly leading to the collapse.
I have already submitted formal reports to the Municipality of Pontresina and several international animal welfare organizations regarding this matter. Visitors should be aware of these practices before choosing this transport.
翻译:我写此信是为了讲述2026年7月30日发生的一起严重事件。当时,由Wohlis Kutschbetrieb(恩加丁马车服务公司)运营的马车于15点45分从瓦尔罗塞格(罗斯格冰川酒店)出发前往蓬特雷西纳。
当时我与年迈的母亲同行,这也是我们选择乘坐马车的唯一原因。出发前,当我看到在他们的网站上展示的主马车后面还额外连接了两辆全尺寸的马车时,我已深感震惊。在盛夏酷暑之际,三匹马被迫同时拉动三节相连的车厢,车上载有近60名乘客,其中包括儿童。在该地区,由两匹马牵引的私人马车通常只能搭载约4人,因此实在难以理解为何要强迫三匹马去拉载近60人。
行进过程中,过重的负荷与高温导致其中一匹马在路上倒下。那一幕令人心碎——我永远忘不了那匹马体力耗竭时眼中的极度疲惫。更令人震惊的是周围人群的彻底沉默,没有人出声劝阻。由于太过震惊且手机又不在身边,我没能拍下照片,但那匹马的倒下过程所有乘客都看得一清二楚。
整个旅程中,那位年轻女司机一直心不在焉,一边讲电话,一边还与身旁的孩子聊天。面对高温与沉重的负荷,她非但没有采取预防措施,反而屡次强迫马匹奔跑,这直接导致了马匹体力不支、瘫倒在地。
关于此事,我已向蓬特雷西纳市及多家国际动物保护组织提交了正式报告。游客在选择这种交通方式前,理应了解这些不当做法。
