About Celerina
Celerina, or Schlarigna in Romansh, lies in the Upper Engadine between St. Moritz, Samedan and Pontresina, across from the entrance of the Bernina Pass. Romansh was the majority language until 1941. The village has no large hotels, only small and medium ones, and its position at the edge of the plain, where the Flaz meets the Inn, makes it the sunniest spot in the Upper Engadine. Much of the Corviglia ski area lies on Celerina's land, and the Marguns gondola takes you to its middle. The Cresta Run toboggan track from St. Moritz finishes in Celerina's Cresta neighbourhood. Our homes sit close together in one small area, most for two to five people, with no pools. In summer the hikers, climbers and mountain bikers take over.
