St. Moritz is continuously expanding its summer season. Well into the autumn guests can look forward to the tried-and-true classics as well as to new highlights in the events calendar 2023 and St. Moritz Experience Shop. From outdoor activities with epicurean embellishments to an exciting architectural experience and the ever-popular St. Moritz Running Festival, there is something for every taste.
The St. Moritz summer season goes into overtime. A rich and varied catalogue of events and experiences ensures unforgettable moments in the heart of the Engadin mountain environment. The Scala cinema and the boutique lifestyle hotel Grace La Margna reopen this summer after extensive renovation work. The latter is also the first five-star hotel in the region to stay open 365 days a year, marking another important step for St. Moritz on its way to becoming a year-round destination.
Close encounters of the wild kind with the local flora and fauna
For the entire summer, Lake St. Moritz is the setting for three activities than can be booked at the St. Moritz Experience Shop. Lakeside Yoga and Stand-Up Paddleboarding plus breakfast are now joined by an exclusive Pedalo and Gourmet Aperitif experience. Available for the first time in late summer and autumn is the Golden Shooting, which combines a bike tour with a professional photoshoot.
Accompanied by the former Italian professional cyclist Fabio Aru, the Biking Experience Days once again explore the region’s spectacular routes and trails for gravel, mountain, and road bikes. A sunrise e-bike ride through the breath-taking natural setting is a perfect and energetic way to start the day. You can also enjoy close encounters of the wild kind with the local flora and fauna in a Forest Bathing experience in the Stazerwald. The gourmet picnic experience takes participants on a relaxing walk immersed in the Engadin alpine scenery. And in July, the St. Moritz Experience Shop has a special outdoor high-(horse)power thrill in store for you with the Summer Polo Experience.
New and reconceived events bring a constant breath of fresh air to the St. Moritz calendar.
