St Moritz is a renowned resort for both its runs and its aprés ski life.
Great accommodation is important, but there is much more to designing a perfect holiday. At Alpine Adventures, we emphasize the importance of relationships and personalized experience. Alpine Adventures will help you define your individual travel needs so you can relax and feel confident that real experts are taking care of your travel arrangements.
Here is why we recommend St. Moritz as your next ski destination:
Nothing says winter like a picture-perfect Swiss Alpine village or ski resort. Ski or snowboard all day, dine and sun bake on the decks of panoramic restaurants located a mile high, relax by the fire sipping Glühwein, maybe have a dip in the hot tub or party into the night and dish out those Francs for schnapps.
Situated in the middle of the Upper Engadine, it covers four ski areas – Corviglia, Margus, Corvatsch, and Diavolezza/Lagalp with one ski pass. With over 218 miles of snow-covered runs at altitudes from 5,600 to 9,900 feet, take in the panoramic view of surrounding mountains, crystal clear lakes while brushing up on your downhill style.

LODGING
Badrutt’s Palace
The “Grande Dame” of Swiss hotels
Set in the breathtaking natural surroundings of the Swiss Alps and embedded in more than a century of history, the “Grande Dame” of Swiss hotels is home to royalty, stars and sport lovers who value quality. Lake St. Moritz, surrounded by picturesque alpine peaks and the shimmering Engadin light, is the ideal background for a destination that abounds with traditional hospitality and discrete service. Badrutt’s Palace Hotel is renowned for its exquisite luxury, first class service and limitless indulgence – a gem amongst world-class hotels which is constantly changing but still preserves its historical inheritance. It has been an icon of hospitality since its opening in 1896 and the guests’ high expectations are the yardstick for innovation and change. It is here where sophistication, lifestyle, high altitude and the champagne-climate meet the genuine St. Moritz flair bursting with exclusivity and style.
Kulm Hotel St. Moritz
Characterized not only by style but also by originality.
The renowned Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is not just like any luxury hotel. In 1856, when the Kulm Hotel St. Moritz opened its doors for the first time, its founder, Johannes Badrutt, initiated a tradition that is very much alive today: to provide each of our guests, young or old, with a cherished and unforgettable memory. And Badrutt became very successful: It was here in St. Moritz where winter tourism was born in 1864. It was here at the Kulm Hotel where the first electric arc light in Switzerland was lit. It was here in St. Moritz where in 1928 and 1948 the Winter Olympic Games were officially opened. The distinguishing mark of the decorative art of our building is its combination of late 19th century elegance and local, Engadine elements. A 164-room hotel of this stature wouldn’t be complete without a Presidential suite and a selection of Luxury and Junior suites. Every room faces our impressive mountainscape.
Carlton Hotel St. Moritz
Perfect choice for international sophisticated travelers.
The Carlton Hotel is all-suite St. Moritz property that opened in 1913, and has emerged from a multi-million dollar renovation that redefines the concept of luxury.
