Traveller notes on Davos in February

Notes from nearby St. Moritz (33 km away)

Davos doesn't have its own notes for February yet — these are about St. Moritz, close enough to share the season.

St. Moritz's forum calls February peak ski season proper — dry, crisp conditions, with reliable snow through the Engadine and sunnier days as the month goes on. Regulars' practical warning: book well ahead if you want a hotel for just one night, single-night stays are hard to find during the busiest weeks.

Other months in Davos

A local ski school's guide is candid that Davos-Klosters weather varies a lot month to month and even week to week, worth checking the forecast close to a trip rather than trusting the calendar alone. Their broader advice for planning a first visit: decide whether you're a beginner or advanced skier before booking, since it changes which part of the resort actually suits the trip.

Recurring seasonal events, natural spectacles, closures and holidays — curated and sourced.

  • Closure

    Fluela Pass closed

    5 Jan – 30 Apr · usually

    The high road east over the Fluela is gazetted shut from early January, later than most Graubunden passes since it was the main winter link before the Vereina tunnel opened, and the Engadine is reached by the car train through Vereina instead until the road clears in April or May. Source ↗

  • Season

    Ski season

    1 Dec – 15 Apr · usually

    Six separate mountains on one pass, with the Parsenn running long descents to Klosters and the Jakobshorn given over to boards. The town sits high enough to hold its snow into April.

  • Season

    Langlauf season

    1 Dec – 20 Mar · usuallySki season

    Davos has one of the largest cross-country networks in the Alps, tracked from the valley floor up the side valleys, and a World Cup weekend in December. Trails are free; the ski passes are not needed. Source ↗

  • Hazard

    Avalanche season

    10 Dec – 15 Apr · usuallyClosures

    The national avalanche institute is based here, which tells you something. Backcountry and the passes run on the daily bulletin, and the roads out shut after the bigger storms. Source ↗
