The Skiers' Guide to St. Moritz - Corviglia

Magical place, incredible views and skiing locations. Great food and apres ski options. Lots of activities like hiking, ice skating and spas to experience.

Drove to st mortiz for my first ski trip in 10yrs.
Great resort, hotel was excellent renie Victoria, partner who doesnt ski loved the spa.

Piste quality is world class. Plenty options for all levels. Several good food options available on and near the slopes. Only downside is the pricing for accommodation relative to nearby resorts in Switzerland and Austria.

I have been coming here since I was born, really lovely, but it gets really busy during Christmas time and holidays. Outside those times the slopes are really nice and the snow is good. While there arent many tree and mongoles, the slopes are amazing and there is plenty of off piste for powder and alpine skiing. The views are nice and there are many restaurants. Can be expensive but the quality is always good!

Huge expanse of skiing with great on-piste restaurants. 'Always' sunny with fantastic views. a haven for skiing and apes skiing
A place to see and be seen....

St. Moritz is a stunningly beautiful resort in the Engadin valley. It's high altitude and the proximity to several glaciers guarantees perfect snow on the groomers even in years with less snow. Slopes are perfectly groomed every day and the first ride up to the mountain is at 7:45. The off-piste terrain is easily accessible and visible, however not too challenging on Corviglia (Corvatsch is a different story). The best part about Corviglia is the quietness of the slopes. Even in high season when it does get crowded in St. Moritz, it's incomparable to other popular resorts in Austria, Italy or France for example. Outside of the high season the slopes are empty. No lift lines, no crowds, great skiing and really good food - if you can afford it. As other pros we can mention the amount of sunny days which is more than 322 per year.
Cons: Many lifts are dated and not up to speed, the mountain's accessibility from the village is not easy, especially if you need to access the beginner area in Salastrains. Very few ski-in ski-out accommodations. It's an expensive resort and you don't always get the right value for your money. Food is excellent but can be really expensive.
