The village itself was an anti-climax
In a nutshell
nice place...too boring for young people!!
BillIW Says: Just ask at your hotel desk and they will show you the various trails on a map and how to reach the trailhead. There are fantastic trails, some that do not require strenuous activity, but a nice, pleasant walk in some of the most fantastic scenery in the world. We spent a...
StuartDutchman Says: Enjoy the views travelling by funicular between the summit Corviglia (2486m) and St. Moritz-Dorf (1856m). A funicular, also known as a funicular railway, is a cable railway in which a cable attached to a pair of tram-like vehicles on rails moves them up and down a steep...
StuartDutchman Says: Piz Nair (3057m) is the highest skiable mountain in the region. It is located above St. Moritz in the Albula Range, accessible by aerial cable car from Corviglia. The Piz Nair Wall was the start of the men's downhill in the 2003 World Championship with a 100% drop results in...
StuartDutchman Says: Enjoy the mountain views, going by aerial cable car to Signal (2130m) and then by foot to Corviglia (2486m). Corviglia is a minor summit situated above St. Moritz. It is also the name of the ski area directly above the town of St. Moritz. This area, together with the fully...
StuartDutchman Says: Lake St. Moritz measures approx. 1.6 km long and 0.6 km wide and depending on how fast a walker you are, it may take 1 to 1-1/2 hours to walk around it. Lake St. Moritz = Lej da San Murezzan, in Romansh. VIDEO of my walk around the lake:...
StuartDutchman Says: Also known as "Top of the World", St. Moritz is considered the oldest and one of the most famous winter resorts in the world. Due to its favorable location residents enjoy over 300 days of sunshine a year. In summer on can enjoy horse riding golf, walking, climbing and...
german_eagle Says: Sils' main attraction is the surrounding landscape. That won't ever change (hopefully). But it has to offer some more things to do and see, some of them often overlooked. The Nietzsche house is probably the best known of them. Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche spent the...
german_eagle Says: Sils is my favourite village in the Upper Engadine. It has the most beautiful location between two lakes, right on the entrance of the marvellous Fex valley. Sils is probably the "cultural centre" of the Engadine. Famous writers, musicians, artists etc. used to stay there...

Piz Nair: Restaurant at the Mountain
ezaguryk Says: Este se encuentra ubicado en el tope de la montana pico Piz Nair, rodeado de grandes ventanales que te permite ver la vista de todo st moritz y sus alrededores. Puedes sentarte a fuera y tomarte un cafe caliente. O adentro y comer plato tipico de salchica con un rallado de...
The funicular to Muottas Muragl
globetrott Says: The funicular to Muottas Muragl is ´just about 4km from St. Moritz and its a great place for a panoramaview and a lot of fun for the whole family! I had been there in August, but this funicular is also working in wintertime. There is a large carpark next to the station of...
globetrott Says: Diavolezza is a great chance for you to touch snow any time of the year ! 125 passangers is the capacity of the giant cablecar that takes you up to Diavolezza in a hight of 2997 meters above sealevel. There is a carpark - free of charge - for several hundreds of cars,...

german_eagle Says: This is one of my favourite places, unfortunately (or not) in a somewhat remote location - thus never crowded. It is a side valley of the Poschiavo valley, beyond the Bernina pass. Easiest is to drive over the Bernina pass to Sfazu, park the car there and take the mini bus...
globetrott Says: The Maloja - passroad is west of St. Moritzand 1815 meters / 5955 feet above sealevelWhen arriving in Maloja on the road from St. Moritz the road is totally flat there and you will be surprised when coming to the highest point of that passroad without any place to drive...
german_eagle Says: Another very beautiful lake in the upper Engadine is located in a side valley off the village Maloja - Lake Cavloc. It's a rather short hike, more a walk, which takes only about 1:30 h from the village, the elevation difference is not too much either: less than 200 m.You're...
german_eagle Says: Usually I am not a big fan of hikes in ski areas. However, sometimes the cable cars offer good / easy access to hiking trails that lead away from the skiing area. After taking the funicular from St. Moritz Dorf to Corviglia and the cable car up to P. Nair you're standing at...
Hike Murtel - Fuorcla Surlej - Roseg valley
german_eagle Says: This hike takes you to one of the most spectacular viewing points in the Alps - Fuorcla Surlej, which is a pass between the main Engadine valley and the Roseg valley. Access to the hiking trail is easy: Take the cable car from Silvaplana Surlej up to the middle station...
german_eagle Says: The so called "Via Segantini" is named after the most popular painter of the valley, Giovanni Segantini whose pictures are to see in the museum in St. Moritz and elsewhere in big art museums. The trail runs along the northern slopes of the Upper Engadine valley, usually 100...

St. Moritz/Upper Engadine Valley
The Engadine Valley is my No. 1 place in my favourite country Switzerland. I use(d) to travel this beautiful region in both summer and winter. Late June/early July and late Sept/early Oct are the best...
Saint Moritz is a nice small town in the Kanton Grischun. It is very nice to spend a day here: you can relax on the lake, walking, skying on the Bernina and also making shopping. The best way to...
The very expensive but popular ski-resort
the Upper Engadine Valley with its major place St. Moritz. You will find a lot of information about the surrounding areas, but only few about St. Moritz itself. The reason therefore is that St. Moritz...
If you enjoy skiing, probably St Moritz is for you. I don't ski so I visited in june and had a great time, but a day was quite enough. Cute, cozy and charming little town.
