St. Moritz is an alpine resort at 1,822 metres in the Upper Engadine valley of Graubünden, with Lake St. Moritz at its centre and the Suvretta and Corviglia ski areas above. The town hosted the Winter Olympics in 1928 and 1948, and the Cresta Run ice track has operated on the slopes above since 1884. The Engadine light, characterised by intense clarity at high altitude, has made the region a destination for painters and photographers since the nineteenth century.
