Switzerland · St. Moritz
Winter in its most elegant form.
A complete St. Moritz guide: distinct ski areas, village bases, scenic access and a curated selection of 3-, 4- and 5-star hotels.
Colorado curation
In the heart of the Engadin, St. Moritz combines more than 350 km of pistes across nine areas, mountains reaching 3,303 metres and a singular tradition of hotels, gastronomy and winter events.
The mountains
Corviglia, Corvatsch, Diavolezza–Lagalb and other areas in one region.
The experience
Grand hotels, frozen lake, shopping, spa, events and scenic rail journeys.
The Colorado perspective
Where winter
became an art.
St. Moritz combines serious skiing with grand hotels, celebrated restaurants, design, shopping and a calendar that transforms the frozen lake into a stage.
The destination is spread across different bases and mountains. Good planning aligns the hotel, daily transport and ski areas with each traveller's priorities.

The 88 runs and 350+ km refer to different scopes of the region, as in the existing guide.
The mountains
One destination. Several ski worlds.
Corviglia · Piz Nair
St. Moritz's local mountain: sunny, impeccably groomed terrain, elegant mountain restaurants and excellent skiing for intermediates.
Corvatsch · Furtschellas
High-altitude skiing up to 3,303 metres, long descents and the celebrated Hahnensee run back towards St. Moritz.
Diavolezza · Lagalb
A wilder, more alpine landscape with glacier views, steeper terrain and a very different atmosphere from Corviglia.
Zuoz and smaller areas
Family-friendly mountains and quieter alternatives that add variety to a longer stay in the Engadin.
The village
Dorf, Bad
or Suvretta?
Dorf concentrates the historic hotels, shops and restaurants. Bad is closer to Signal, Ovaverva spa and lake sports. Suvretta is more secluded and offers privileged ski access. The hotel address materially changes the experience.

Access and extensions

Practical questions
Before booking
St. Moritz.
Is St. Moritz one connected ski area?+
No. Corviglia, Corvatsch, Diavolezza–Lagalb and the smaller areas are connected by road or public transport, not entirely by pistes and lifts.
Which base is best?+
Dorf prioritises restaurants, shopping and Corviglia access. Bad is practical for Signal, spa and lake activities. Suvretta favours privacy and its own lift access.
Is it only for expert skiers?+
No. Corviglia is particularly strong for intermediates and groomed-piste skiing. Experts should add Corvatsch, Diavolezza and Lagalb.
How do I reach St. Moritz?+
Zurich (ZRH) is the main gateway. The scenic rail journey via Chur takes roughly three hours; private transfers normally take around three hours depending on winter conditions.
How many nights should I stay?+
Six to eight nights make sense for multiple ski areas, changing weather and the destination's restaurants, spa, rail journeys and winter events.
