The Engadin accommodation is perched at the highest point in the small village of Surlej, just 5 km from St. Moritz. Unlike a normal St.Moritz hotel, or even a Silvaplana hotel, it provides ski in, ski out access, as Nira Alpina is connected to the Corvatsch cable car station via a private walkway. The guests can ascend to 3300 metres, the highest point in the ski domain, in just 15 min. In summer, the adjoining cable car leads to spectacular high-altitude hiking and biking trails. Among Corvatsch hotels, it is one of the closest to Lake Silvaplana, the famous venue for kitesurfing and windsurfing.
