Ski Areas in St. Moritz

St. Moritz ski resort incorporates five key areas – Lagalb and Diavolezza, which rise to a snow-sure 3,000m and offer some of the region’s best expert skiing; Zuoz, a small village that families and freeriders come to for quieter skiing; Corvatsch, which is home to the best snow and most exciting pistes, and Corviglia, the core ski area accessible by funicular from Dorf and by cable-car from Bad.

Skiing in St. Moritz

Advanced skiers will enjoy the Corvatsch area, which offers exciting descents such as the famous Standard Run, coming down from the summit on a broad steepening ridge. Another challenging run starts at Diavolezza and goes 10km down the glacier to Morteratsch. Intermediates can ski the wide open blue and red runs in Corviglia, where long pistes provide peaceful cruising as you take in the magnificent scenery. The Corviglia area is also best suited to beginners, thanks to its nursery slopes and drag lifts.
