St. Moritz – Corviglia lies in Grisons and is one of the larger Swiss ski areas: 155 kilometres of piste served by 23 lifts.
The area runs from 1720 to 3057 metres above sea level, giving around 1,337 metres of vertical. That takes the terrain above the 3,000-metre mark, which markedly improves snow reliability on the upper slopes.
The season usually runs Nov – April.
Freestylers get a well-developed snow park, an adult day pass costs CHF 95.
Of note: Part of the Engadin network (~350 km in total)

Getting there by public transport
Destination stop: St. Moritz. Fastest connection on a Saturday morning in the currently published timetable, from the open Swiss timetable interface, retrieved 10 August 2026. A guide value, not a timetable: the real journey time depends on when you leave and what you connect to, and winter-only bus services are not yet included.
Frequently asked about St. Moritz – Corviglia
How high is St. Moritz – Corviglia?
The ski area runs from 1,720 to 3,057 metres above sea level, a vertical range of 1,337 metres. For snow reliability the lower figure matters more: that is where the snow disappears first, and where a mild December is felt before it is felt at the top.
How many kilometres of piste does St. Moritz – Corviglia have?
155 kilometres on 23 lifts, according to the operator. There is no binding standard for measuring piste kilometres, so the figure is comparable between resorts only to a point. The lift count says at least as much about how big a place feels.
What does a day pass at St. Moritz – Corviglia cost?
CHF 95 for an adult day pass at the standard rate, as of summer 2026. Booked early it is often less; on a peak Saturday it is not.
When does St. Moritz – Corviglia open?
The usual season window is Nov – April. For winter 2026/27 the resort has announced 21 November 2026 as its starting date (Corviglia). Every announced date depends on enough snow and cold.
How do I get to St. Moritz – Corviglia by train?
The destination stop is St. Moritz. From Zürich HB the fastest connection on a Saturday morning takes 3 h 05, changing 1 time; from Bern 4 h 10. A guide value, not a timetable.
Is there a snowpark at St. Moritz – Corviglia?
Yes, and a good one: we rate it 7 out of 10. That rating is our own assessment, based on the size and number of features, how regularly the park is shaped, and whether it runs all season. It does not come from the lift company.

Will the Sölden World Cup go ahead? The figures say yes, and the ski area still stays shut
On 24 and 25 October the alpine World Cup is due to open on the Rettenbach glacier. At 2,900 metres, 86 hours over the next sixteen days are cold enough to make snow; nine hundred metres lower, ten Swiss areas together manage 95. Why a race is easier than a season.
The warmest September in 36 years. It says almost nothing about the winter
September 2026 was the warmest at 2,000 metres in our series. We ran the numbers on 35 winters: after the ten warmest Septembers, 316 centimetres of snow fell on average; after the ten coldest, 267. The relationship points the opposite way to the one people assume, and it is weak.
Too warm to make snow: the cold window has slipped five days
Five days ago the first usable snowmaking nights fell on 4 to 6 October; now they fall on the 9th and 10th. Over sixteen days, 95 of 3,840 hours are cold enough, and seven of ten areas get not one centimetre of snow. The figures, and what they mean for the season start.
No summer skiing left in the Alps: 24 areas have given up, four of them in three weeks
On 15 August 2026 the Stelvio was the last area to stop summer operations. Since then nobody in the Alps has been skiing in summer, for the first time. The record of 24 closures, the decade in comparison, and the reason that is not the ice.
