Corviglia, Alpine ski area in Engadin, Switzerland.
Description
Corviglia is a ski area in the Engadin valley with slopes spanning different elevations and difficulty levels for various skill levels. The terrain ranges from gentle runs to steeper descents, all accessible through a network of cable cars and lifts.
History
This ski area became world-known after hosting the 1948 Winter Olympics and later several World Ski Championships. These major events shaped how the resort developed and the facilities built here over time.
Culture
Mountain restaurants here serve local Engadin specialties that reflect the food traditions of this Alpine valley. Visitors dining on the slopes experience how the mountain lifestyle shapes what people eat and when.
Practical
The area is well organized with clear signage and multiple access points at different elevations. Weather conditions can change rapidly at these heights, so proper clothing layers and visibility awareness are essential for a safe day on the slopes.

The White Carpet program offers early morning access to freshly groomed slopes starting around 7:45 AM before the day gets busy. This quieter time lets skiers enjoy the slopes in their best condition with fewer people around.
