In the canton of the Grisons, in Switzerland, a part of the upper valley of the Rhine above Coire, offers a succession of typical landscapes, of which the aspect is essentially due to the rockslides which happened at the end of the Quaternary era. The present article intends to describe and explain the particularity of these landscapes, which we can find near by Flims or Ems. The detailed study of the end of the last ice-age of the Quaternary era allows to suggest a chronology. But the geological basis gives the substance of the explanation : we show why with favourable lithological conditions, the country was predetermined to know mighty rockslides.Dans le Canton des Grisons, en Suisse, une partie de la haute vallée du Rhin, à l'amont de C...
