Location Overview |
||||
| The snow-clad mountains of St. Moritz are much loved by ski enthusiasts from all over the world, especially by the rich, famous and VIP's from all over the world. The outstanding accommodations and nightlife, however, are just the trimmings for a winter playground of superlative quality. Oberengadin 's mineral springs are also a major drawcard.
St. Moritz is the most famous ski resort in the world: chic, elegant and grand with a very cosmopolitan ambience. It lies in a beautiful setting around the lake, in the Engadin valley. The 'sparkling dry champagne climate of St. Moritz' is legendary: its famous sun shines 322 days of the year on average. The famous health springs have been in use since the Bronze Age and a modern spa complex complements their soothing properties. St Moritz is the birthplace of winter tourism and modern winter sports in the Alps and is Switzerland's only Olympic host resort (1928 and 1948). St. Moritz literally offers 'snow how' at its best: skiing - downhill and cross-country - the Cresta and Bob runs; horse races, polo and golf on the frozen lake, plus a consummate nightlife, gala events, shopping fashion shows and much, much more. |
