St Moritz
Way too poncy but great riding. Best to avoid Celerina & Corviglia and head to nearby Corvatsch & Diavolezza where the Freeriding is awesome.
ON THE SLOPES Pretty damn good
OFF THE SLOPES Appeals to those with deep pockets
MONEY WISE Probably the most expensive resort on the planet...but nearby Pontresina & Silvaplana have normal prices.
