Depending on where you are travelling from, Silvaplana is not the easiest place to get to unless you have a private plane in which case you can fly in to the local airport at St Moritz!

Airport distances

Airport Distance
Bergamo 150 km
Milan Linate 164 km
Millan Malpensa 202 km
Zurich 204 km

By car

Transfers from Zurich means driving to Chur (1 hour) and then over the Julier Pass and from Milan - the Maloja pass. Both have spectacular scenery and if you like an adrenaline rush, the hairpin bends will do the trick. In winter, if its raining on the approach roads to the passes, it will almost certainly be snowing when you climb to the top so snow-chains are a must.

By train

There is a train station in St Moritz so if you are arriving in to Zurich airport, you can get a train straight from the mainline station which takes around 3 hours and then take a taxi.
