Why visit St. Moritz?

St. Moritz defines high-altitude sophistication, perched 1,856 meters above sea level in the Engadin valley. The experience begins at the Badrutt’s Palace Hotel, where the grand Belle Époque facade anchors the town center. Beyond the luxury boutiques lining the Via Serlas, the terrain offers world-class winter sports on the Corviglia slopes, accessible via the funicular departing from the village. Afternoon rituals demand a visit to Hanselmann, the legendary bakery, for a slice of traditional Engadiner Nusstorte, a rich, caramelized walnut tart that provides the necessary fuel for navigating the frozen expanse of Lake St. Moritz.

The landscape transforms into a theater of elite performance during the White Turf horse races, held directly on the lake's thick ice. When the sun dips behind the Piz Nair, the social scene shifts to the King’s Social House for cocktails or a formal dinner featuring authentic capuns—chilled or baked Swiss chard rolls stuffed with dried meat and spaetzle dough. For a quieter perspective, the Segantini Museum showcases the atmospheric alpine works of Giovanni Segantini, framed by the jagged peaks of the Bernina Range. Whether traversing the icy tracks of the Olympia Bob Run or indulging in a fondue Savoyarde at Chesa Veglia, St. Moritz remains the definitive alpine destination for discerning travelers.
