    ABOUT ST. MORITZ

    If you’re looking for a luxurious ski vacation, few resorts can top St. Moritz’s famed prestige. The St. Moritz village is situated at the center of the Engadin Valley, which the Inn River passes through. Like most resorts located in the Swiss Alps, you can be assured that St. Moritz offers stunning views of dramatic mountain peaks. The Swiss town was also the proud host of the Winter Olympic Games twice, once in 1928 and again in 1948. 1928 was the year skeleton sledding debuted and the only time it’s been a part of the Winter Olympics— a contest where the competitors raced down the Cresta Run while lying headfirst on sleds.

    The base area of the resort is divided into St. Moritz Bad, which has easier access to the lifts, and St. Moritz Dorf, which features an elegant shopping village. The resort incorporates four large ski areas—Corvatsch, Corviglia, Diavolezza/Lagalb and Lifts Zuoz—and their combined 215+ miles of terrain. As host to the Engadin Ski Marathon, Nordic skiing is quite popular, and the resort offers over 142 miles of cross-country trails around the town.

    Activities off the slopes include winter horse racing, curling, bobsledding, snowshoeing, snowkiting or shopping in dozens of chic shops. Afternoon tea on a sunny café terrace is a must. A whole world of entertainment from informal bars to the casino and stylish nightclubs can fill your evenings. A St. Moritz ski vacation will delight anyone looking for a high-end experience from start to finish.
