"You know a trip has worked its magic when you're Googling citizenship requirements before the flight home Or when the hotel concierge slips you a room key to take home as a way of saying "keep this...you'll be back." The destination in question? St. Moritz, Switzerland - my new spiritual homeland.If you're picturing snowy peaks, chic ski gear and luxury winter retreats, you're half right. The town is famously synonymous with prestige winter sports and alpine glamour."
"It's just a 90-minute flight from London to Zurich, but reaching St. Moritz still requires another three hours by car or train - a stretch of travel time that, in most cases, would dampen any attempt at slipping into holiday mode right away. On this occasion however, an exception can be made. While long, the journey is nothing short of majestic - arguably not long enough! From Zürich HB, we hopped on the SBB to St. Moritz, switching at Chur."
"It's a completely surreal way to travel. You'll wind through towns and villages, over viaducts and lakes, past alps and valleys, all while draining your phone battery as you try (and fail) to capture everything. Rest assured, the retreat begins the moment you board - so sit back, plug in your earphones and let Switzerland's spellbinding countryside carry you away."
St. Moritz reveals a distinct summer identity that balances nature, wellness, indulgence and sunshine, transforming snowbound glamour into a Euro Shangri-la. Warm days uncover scenic alps, lakes and valleys that reward visitors outside the ski season. Travel from Zurich involves an additional three-hour car or train journey through towns, viaducts and sweeping landscapes, creating a majestic arrival experience. Summer in St. Moritz offers outdoor beauty and relaxation combined with luxury touches, and comfortable first-class rail travel enhances the journey for those seeking space and ease.
