Visitor Reviews of St Moritz
FreeSkier from UNITED STATES writes:
St.Moritz (in the Engadine Valley) has more to offer than 'St.Moritz' and the "Corviglia" area. For off-piste and free-skiing, Corvatsch ROCKS!!!!! If you're a hard core skier, Corvatsch, about 2miles down the valley from St.Moritz towards Italy is a must. Have had some of my most memorable powder days there, just as good as heli-skiing, maybe better because its more convenient and just as wild. BUT must know the mountain, have good avalanche skills, and be conservative in areas like Furtschellas Couloir and the glacier and Mast Acht face below the tram. Corviglia's off piste is great too, especially as most skiers stay on piste and i remember getting face shots just off the piste, no hiking, even two days after a dump. Try La Galb & Diavolezza too, about 15mins drive the other side of the valley towards Austria - good chances of untracked pow even days after a storm.
