Best Hikes in St Moritz

Piz Languard

Distance: 5.0 miles (Round Trip)

Breathtaking views of the summits towering above the Upper Engadine and Bernina Valleys reward hikers completing the very steep climb to the summit of Piz Languard. This summit is one of the easier 3,000-meter peaks to scale, with a good, albeit rugged, trail going to the top.

Fuorcla Surlej to Pontresina via Coaz Hut

Distance: 3.0 - 12.3 miles (One Way)

Glorious, panoramic views of Piz Bernina and Piz Roseg from Fuorcla Surlej, front row seats to an incredible spectacle of rock and ice from Coaz Hut and a lovely walk through the beautiful meadows and forests of Val Roseg make this one of my favorite hikes in the St. Moritz area.

Morteratsch Glacier and Boval Hut

Distance: 6.7 - 8.0 miles (Round Trip)

The hike to the Boval Hut enjoys breathtaking views of the dramatic glacial cirque at the head of the Morteratsch Valley, dominated by the Piz Palu and Bernina massifs along with the Morteratsch and Pers glaciers.

Muottas Muragl to Alp Languard

Distance: 4.0 - 6.0 miles (One Way)

A short hike that is long on panoramic views of the high peak towering above the Roseg, Morteratsch and Upper Engadine valleys. Extend the hike with a high traverse beneath the ridge anchored by Piz Muragl and Piz Languard for great views of the Bernina massif.

Val Fex

Distance: 2.5 - 8.9 miles (Round Trip)

An easy to moderate walk up the beautiful, pristine Fex Valley visits charming villages set amid lovely meadows. Along the way enjoy wonderful views of the high peaks rising above the northwest side of the Upper Engadine Valley and the glacier-clad cirque at the head of the valley.

Segantini Hut

Distance: 4.5 miles (Round Trip)

The Segantini Hut, high above Pontresina in the Bernina Valley, offers birds-eye-views of the summits soaring above the Roseg, Morteratsch and Upper Engadine Valleys.

Lej Sgrischus to Piz Chuern

Distance: 6.4 - 7.6 miles (Round Trip)

Skip the crowds on this great hike that travels through Alp Munt, visits lovely Lake Sgrischus and then climbs to a panoramic overlook atop Piz Chuern with views of the Corvatsch massif and the high peaks towering above the Fex, Fedoz and Upper Engadine valleys.

Julier Pass to Fuorcla Grevasalvas to Maloja

Distance: 5.2 - 8.4 miles (One Way)

Two pretty lakes, a panoramic pass and lovely views of the Albula and Bernina Alps are the scenic rewards of this hike crossing the rugged range between Julier Pass and the Upper Engadine Lakes plateau.

Alp Languard to Fuorcla Pischa

Distance: 6.7 miles (One Way)

Get off the beaten path with this scenic hike climbing to Fuorcla Pischa, a high pass at the head of Val Languard. The hike enjoys great views of the glacier clad Bernina massif, Piz Languard and the stark basin, sprinkled with tarns, below Pischa Pass.

Lakes Trail: Silvaplana to Maloja

Distance: 3.3 - 7.9 miles (One Way)

This delightful walk traverses the eastern shores of Lake Silvaplana (Silvaplanersee) and Lake Sils (Silsersee) with lovely views stretching across the lakes to the high peaks towering above the Upper Engadine Valley.
