Although there is no skiing directly from Pontresina,

the resort is perfectly placed to explore the vast network of slopes at Corviglia and Corvatsch above St Moritz or the high-alpine, glacier slopes of Diavolezza and Lagalb – which offer some of Switzerland’s most snowsure and spectacular skiing. Advanced skiers and those willing to strap on a pair of touring skins will love the long runs at Diavolezza, including the epic descent of the Morteratsch Glacier – Switzerland’s version of the Vallee Blanche.

The village itself is small and based around the railway station. Stay as centrally as possible for the quickest access to the train each morning and don’t expect lively apres ski or a huge variety of restaurants and hotels, Pontresina is small, laid-back and quiet.

Snow Overview

Switzerland

Updated 24/03

the first Nordstau of the season (in late March, would you believe it) is set to bring excellent conditions across particularly eastern reaches of the country through the middle of this week. Unsettled conditions moving in from the north plummet temperatures, with the freezing line taking a long walk off a short pier through this period; dropping from a daytime high above 2,000m on Wednesday to sea level overnight into Friday.

With this unsettled weather will come excellent snowfall; the west will see useful top ups of around 20cm falling on Wednesday afternoon and throughout Thursday, whereas the east will see bumper conditions with up to 2ft expected down at the same time. This will peak on Thursday, when c.50cm is expected down over higher ground.

Expect the avalanche forecast to climb over this period, as this new snow may well be sitting on a spring freeze-thaw crust and/or a very wet snowpack thanks to spring melt.

Things will return to a more spring-like norm as the weekend arrives, with spring freeze-thaw cycles in play and plenty of sun; a few lingering clouds will bring snowfall on Sunday and into the new week, but it remains a bit too far out to say exactly how much will fall, when, and where.
