With all the charm of a chocolate box,
St Moritz celebrates its 150th winter of snowsports this year! The Polo world cup on the frozen lake, the annual vintage car rally and the stylish, soulful sounds of the blues festival already transport you back in time to the authentic charm and romance of the early days of alpinism.
However, this year’s events calendar has the power to WOW even
St Moritz’s most frequent and luxurious visitors. Open air music concerts, fireside meet and greets with local snowsports stars and mesmerizing raconteurs are sure to amaze with their memories and experiences while sampling some of the most traditional and delicious Swiss delicacies.

The St Moritz experience is truly unique; the sheer beauty of the snow covered town, stunning frozen lake, warm, welcoming locals and authentic old world feel are coupled with all the conveniences of a modern purpose built resort. Snowsports tourism in this town may be reaching its 150th year but its lift systems and mountain maintenance are some of the best in the Alps.
A fast, well managed and well linked lift system keeps you warm and cosy as it provides you with access to almost 100 immaculately maintained pistes. The ski terrain is varied, exciting and accessible to all levels of snowsports enthusiasts with no shortage of untouched powder. Even the keen tobogganist will find no lack of challenge at the heart stopping Cresta Run.
