St. Moritz frozen lake in winter, Engadin, Switzerland

The Destination

St. Moritz

For over a century, the world's most discerning individuals have chosen St. Moritz as their alpine home.

1,800 Metres Above Sea Level

The World's Premier Alpine Destination

St. Moritz has hosted the Winter Olympics twice — in 1928 and 1948 — and has been the birthplace of alpine tourism, bobsleigh, and winter polo. Its position in the Upper Engadin valley, at 1,800 metres, gives it an extraordinary microclimate: 322 days of sunshine per year, reliably cold winters, and warm, clear summers.

The community that gathers here each winter — and increasingly each summer — is genuinely international: European aristocracy, Middle Eastern royalty, American industrialists, Asian family offices, and the global creative and intellectual elite. It is a place where extraordinary people choose to spend their time.
