St Moritz
Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious alpine resorts in the world, St Moritz is renowned for its dazzling sunshine, pristine snow and elegant atmosphere. As the birthplace of winter tourism and a two time Winter Olympics host, the resort blends historic prestige with contemporary sophistication. Surrounded by frozen lakes and dramatic mountain scenery, St Moritz delivers an exceptional skiing experience alongside an unrivalled social and cultural scene.
The St Moritz ski area spans over 155 kilometres of meticulously prepared pistes across four distinct sectors: Corviglia, Corvatsch, Diavolezza and Zuoz. Corviglia, rising directly above the town, offers wide, sunlit runs ideal for relaxed cruising and intermediate skiers. For more demanding terrain, Corvatsch boasts longer descents, steeper gradients and atmospheric night skiing, while the Diavolezza Glacier ensures excellent snow conditions and breathtaking high-alpine views well into late spring.
Beyond the slopes, St Moritz is synonymous with an Elite alpine lifestyle. Each winter the frozen Lake St Moritz transforms into a spectacular venue for international Polo, the exclusive ICE automotive showcase, and the legendary White Turf horse racing event. In the town centre, luxury shopping defines the experience, with renowned boutiques such as Cartier and Loro Piana sitting alongside contemporary art galleries and stylish cafés.
A luxury ski holiday in St Moritz is also a celebration of gastronomy. The resort is home to an outstanding collection of Michelin starred restaurants, elegant dining rooms and atmospheric mountain huts. Sun drenched terrace lunches and elegant evening dining experiences are an integral part of life in St Moritz, perfectly complementing the resort’s refined sense of occasion.
With its rare combination of world-class skiing, high end accommodation, gourmet dining and glamorous events, St Moritz continues to define the very essence of the luxury ski holiday in the Swiss Alps.
