Tips for Lifestyle Connoisseurs

1. Lunch time! The N/5 – THE BAR at the Hotel Grace La Margna is not only known for its cocktails (master mixologist Mirco Giumelli has already won several awards!) but is also worth a visit for lunch.

2. Fondue on the Diavolezza!
Enjoying a glacier fondue at 2,972 meters above sea level? It doesn't get more Swiss than this! By the way: Until May 4, 2025, you can also enjoy a few runs on the slopes before (or after) your fondue lunch!

3. From glaciers to palm trees.
The scenic train ride on the Bernina Express from St. Moritz to Tirano is always worth a trip. It's especially special in spring, when the experience changes from winter and glaciers to sun and palm trees.

4. Traditional and rustic.
At Peppino's, next to the former St. Moritz Olympic ski jump, traditional Swiss cuisine is combined with Italian specialties.

5. Local Insider. If you're looking for a real St. Moritz feeling, stop by Confiserie Hauser. Since 1892, classics like the Engadin nut cake, fine cakes, truffles, and chocolates have been handmade here with love and regional ingredients. And: the delicacies can best be enjoyed on the sun terrace.

6. Sun in your face.
Protected from the sometimes biting Maloja wind, you can perfectly enjoy the spring sunshine on the terrace of the Hotel Bellavista. A culinary highlight? The signature dish of venison saddle "Baden-Baden" with homemade cabbage pizokel. (Open until April 21, 2025)

7. Spring walk and lunch.
Admire (and photograph) the first flowers on the San Gian meadow in Celerina and then stop for lunch at Bo's Co Celerina.

8. Whisky? Whisky!
A distillery at 3,303 meters above sea level? If you'd like to learn more about the "Orma Whisky (and especially taste it), you can join a guided tour of the distillery. (Open until April 27, 2025)

9. Culinary by the lake.
Located directly on the shores of Lake St. Moritz, the Segelhaus is the perfect place for a break with a view. Whether it's a leisurely brunch, a light lunch, or a relaxed dinner – everyone will find something to their liking here.

10. Matcha Latte in Samedan.
The Kunst Café in Samedan is always busy. Whether it's for a cappuccino or matcha latte (the best in the Engadin!) in the morning, homemade momos at lunch, or an aperitif in the evening – the café is the meeting place in the heart of Samedan.

11. The first and oldest restaurant in St. Moritz “Le Lapin Bleu,” is a meeting place for locals and guests alike for coffee at the regulars' table, a quick snack, or a large dinner. Every guest is sure to find something to their taste here!

12. Un gelato, per favore! Would you like another stop? Then it's worth crossing the border to Chiavenna. This small town in Lombardy is known for its historic center. Enjoy a gelato or an aperitivo in the spring sunshine – la dolce vita!
