Not everyone comes here for the skiing, but those that don’t hit the slopes are really missing out.

The three ski areas in the St Moritz valley, nestled in the southeast corner of Switzerland, offer up over 300km of groomed slopes served by 42 lifts – several of which have seen upgrades in recent years. There is something for everyone, including good learning areas, some of the region’s best advanced terrain and snowsure skiing topping out at over 3300m.

Despite its reputation, St Moritz is far from being the prettiest resort in Switzerland – indeed some of the big apartment blocks are a bit of an eyesore.

But the quality of the accommodation on offer and the scenery more than make up for this.

Pros and cons

Huge range of skiing and long runs at every turn
Very snowsure thanks to the altitude and comprehensive snowmaking
Loads to do away from the slopes, including the Cresta Run

Prices are expensive on and off the slopes
Few trees to retreat to if the weather is bad
Corvatsch and Diavolezza are a train or bus ride away from St Moritz

On the Slopes

Corviglia is the local hill directly to the west of St Moritz. Its 155km of slopes are accessed from three points, with the most efficient route up being the train from St Moritz Dorf into the heart of the action at Corviglia. From here, an extensive network of long, wide and snowsure blues and reds make this a vast intermediate paradise. Further up there are some testing blacks and if you choose to return via the challenging 1928 and 1948 Olympic Downhill course (piste 12), your legs will certainly know about it! Corvatsch is the other major ski area and is home to 120km of slopes. These are mostly rated red and blue, offering some fantastic high altitude cruising.

Topping out at 3303m and with skiing on the Corvatsch glacier, this is a very snowsure area, making it a good early or late season destination.The third area at Diavolezza-Lagalb is essentially served by two long gondolas.

These however open up steep, long and mostly north-facing routes that are renowned for holding on to excellent snow conditions. The descent from the summit down the Morteratsch Glacier is the longest glacier run in Switzerland, dropping 1100m over the course of 10km – hire a guide for this and enjoy one of the country’s best runs.

Snow Overview

Switzerland

Updated 02/05

Warm weather opens the weekend across Switzerland, with the freezing line sitting high at close to or above 4,000m throughout. Things change as the weekend continues, with temperatures cooling as the freezing line comes down to as low as 1,500m.

Cloud cover dominates, and with it precipitation; this will fall as rain initially, but will turn to snow as temperatures fall. Around 12cm will fall in steady flurries throughout the weekend and into the new week, falling almost entirely on higher ground as the freezing line remains above 2,000m during this period.

High pressure brings fine, dry and bright conditions especially across the west of the region.

Thus concludes our snow overviews for this season. Thank you to everyone who has read them this season, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!
