Signalbahn Cable Car
The Signalbahn cable car offers a scenic ascent from St. Moritz Bad to the Signal mountain station at 2,130 meters above sea level. This modern cable car provides year-round access to a magnificent panoramic viewpoint, making it a popular choice for hikers, mountain bikers, and sightseers. In summer, it's the starting point for numerous well-marked hiking trails, including routes to the idyllic Lej da Staz or more challenging ascents. In winter, it serves a smaller, family-friendly ski area distinct from the main resorts and provides access to winter hiking paths and snowshoeing routes. The journey itself offers stunning views over Lake St. Moritz and the Engadin valley. At the top, the Restaurant Signal offers traditional Engadin cuisine with a spectacular backdrop. Operating hours typically run from early morning to late afternoon, with specific schedules varying by season (e.g., 8:30-16:30 in winter, 9:00-17:00 in summer). Ticket prices are approximately CHF 20-30 for a return journey, with discounts for children and Engadin Card holders.
