Amidst a magnificent alpine setting, guests and locals alike meet for the Engadin’s largest horse racing event on the frozen Lake St. Moritz. A highlight of the season, the annual White Turf event, a tradition dating back to 1907, is no longer merely a horse-racing meeting. It stands for thundering hooves on spraying snow, thrilling flat and trotting races, complete with betting offices. Also an event worth noting, SKIJORING – courageous men and intrepid women on skis being pulled along at high-speed by unmounted horses at the only skijoring race in the world.
