Sankt Moritz

Welcome to the Engadine!

St. Moritz is the most scintillating alpine destination in the world. Its name is protected as a trademark, and stands worldwide for elegance and high class.

This is where winter sports were invented in 1864, and to this day, nowhere else are they celebrated in such style.

Guests from all over the world enjoy the stylish, cosmopolitan ambiance and a unique combination of top-quality restaurants in resort and on the slopes, hotels that set new standards in luxury at every level, and a packed calendar of top-level international events – from the White Turf horse races to the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup, and from the Snow Polo World Cup and the Gourmet Festival to Cricket on Ice.

The shopping is famously seductive, notably along glamorous Via Serlas – while close by local specialities can be found, such as the celebrated Engadin walnut cake.

Of course, the quality of winter sports on offer in St. Moritz is also outstanding – from the local mountain, Corviglia/Piz Nair, with its 100 kilometres of slopes, to the legendary Cresta Run and the world's only natural-ice bobsleigh track. It is no surprise, then, that after staging four Alpine World Ski Championships and two Winter Olympic Games (1928 and 1948), St. Moritz has also host the Alpine World Ski Championships in 2017.
