The road from St. Anton to St. Moritz: why 150 km takes around 2½ hours
A taxi from St. Anton am Arlberg to St. Moritz costs from €480 for one to three passengers and from €495 for four to eight, per vehicle and one way, at any hour. It is around 150 kilometres, and you should allow two and a half to two and three quarter hours — not the two hours a distance calculator will offer you.
Put the price next to the airport list and it looks wrong: Zurich Airport is 200 kilometres and starts at €460. About fifty kilometres shorter, and twenty euros more. The reason is the road. Only the first thirty-five kilometres of this one are fast — the S16 expressway down to Landeck. The remaining hundred and fifteen are ordinary main road through the Oberinntal and then a narrow valley road in Switzerland. The Zurich run is motorway almost the whole way.
The way runs east, not west. Out of St. Anton on the S16 past Flirsch and Strengen to Landeck, then south up the Oberinntal on the B180 through Fließ, Ried im Oberinntal and Tösens to Pfunds. The border comes just past Pfunds, and after it the road becomes the Swiss 27 through the Lower Engadin: Scuol, Zernez, Zuoz, Bever, Samedan, and finally St. Moritz.
The Swiss half is where the time goes. Past the border the road narrows, winds through a long series of hairpins and then runs village to village along the valley floor, with a speed limit through every one of them. It is a beautiful drive and a slow one, and no amount of local knowledge makes it faster. What local knowledge does is stop you being surprised: we plan the day around two and three quarter hours, and in winter around more.
St. Moritz has its own ski area and its own lift pass, unconnected to Ski Arlberg, and it is where the Bernina and Glacier Express lines begin. Guests who ask us for this drive are usually joining one of those, or splitting a winter between the Arlberg and the Engadin. Either way it is one car with the luggage in it for the whole of a road that would otherwise mean changing trains along the way — and the price does not rise after dark, so an early departure costs what a midday one costs.
The St. Anton to St. Moritz route on the map
The route from St. Anton to St. Moritz, stop by stop
The diagram reads from the top down, and the line itself tells you the story. Solid to the border: Austrian main road, wide and gritted. Dashed after it: the Swiss valley road, which narrows almost immediately.
That marked crossing is the thing to remember. Everything above it moves at the speed you would expect. Everything below it does not — and that is where two and a half hours turns into two and three quarter, and more when there is snow on it. Half the distance, most of the time.
The map above gives two figures for the same road, 148 km in 2 h 27 and 157 km in 2 h 40, depending which way round Landeck you go. We plan for the longer one. When you book, tell us the time you need to be in St. Moritz rather than the time you would like to leave, and we work backwards from the slow half.
St. Anton to St. Moritz taxi prices
The price is per vehicle, not per person, and it is for one direction. Eight people sharing the €495 fare pay about €62 each; three sharing €480 pay €160 each. That is the whole reason a private transfer is worth doing as a group and not worth much on your own.
Both bands are the same vehicle. On this route we send the minibus even for two or three people: a week of luggage for two ski resorts does not fit in a saloon, and we would rather bring the space than discuss it at your door. Road tolls and ski equipment are included, and there is no night surcharge on this transfer — a departure at five in the morning costs what a departure at noon costs. We confirm the binding price when you book, before anyone gets in the car.
| Passengers | Vehicle | Fixed price from |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 passengers | Private minibus 4×4 | €480 |
| 4–8 passengers | Private minibus 4×4 | €495 |
Where we pick you up in St. Anton
The transfer starts at your door. We collect anywhere in St. Anton am Arlberg that a vehicle can reach, and at an agreed point nearby where it cannot — the fixed price is the same wherever in the village you are staying.
- St. Anton railway station
Straight from the station hall. Tell us the train you arrive on and the driver is there for it.
- The centre
Hotels, chalets and apartments along the Dorfstraße and around it — we pull up at the door.
- Nasserein
The eastern end of the village, by the Nassereinbahn. Door to door like anywhere else.
- St. Jakob and Gastig
The hamlets above and below the village. Further out, same fixed price.
Door-to-door drop-off in St. Moritz
The transfer ends at your accommodation, not at a drop-off point shared with strangers. St. Moritz is built on two levels and it is worth knowing which one your hotel is on before you arrive with the cases.
- St. Moritz Dorf
The upper village on the hillside — the grand hotels and the shopping street.
- St. Moritz Bad
The lower part, down by the lake. A different address and a different walk home.
- St. Moritz railway station
Where the Rhaetian Railway ends and the Glacier Express and Bernina line begin.
- Samedan, Celerina, Pontresina
All within minutes on the same road. Ask when you book and we quote it as one journey.
Travelling to St. Moritz with skis and luggage
Moving between two ski resorts is the journey luggage makes worst. Four people with boot bags, ski bags and suitcases are carrying more than they can comfortably move through a station, and this particular trip would ask them to do it twice.
On a private transfer it is loaded once in St. Anton and comes out once in St. Moritz. Skis and snowboards travel on our racks or inside, depending on the vehicle, and there is no charge for either. The minibus seats eight with the equipment, not instead of it — that is the number we quote and the number that fits.
This road in winter
The first half of the transfer is the easy half: the S16 and the B180 down the Oberinntal are main roads, cleared and salted. It is after Pfunds that the drive becomes a winter drive — a narrow Swiss road through hairpins and then village after village, with snow on it for a good part of the season.
Our vehicles carry chains through the winter and our drivers fit them; that is ordinary here, not a service worth charging for. What matters more is the hour we leave. We check the road and the forecast before setting off and, on a bad morning, we will tell you to start earlier rather than promise you a time we cannot keep. If a road is genuinely shut, no local knowledge opens it.
Taxi or train from St. Anton to St. Moritz?
We will not pretend a private transfer is always the answer. If you are one or two people with a case each and no skis, the train is a good journey and the last part of it — the Rhaetian Railway up into the Engadin — is one people ride for its own sake. On that trip we would take the train too.
The car wins where the train struggles: four or more of you, ski equipment, an early start the timetable does not cover, or an arrival time you have to hold. Below three passengers the per-person maths rarely favours us, and we would rather say so now than have you work it out afterwards.
| Private taxi | Train | |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup | Your door in St. Anton | St. Anton station |
| Changes | None | Connections along the way, ending on the narrow-gauge Rhaetian Railway |
| Skis and cases | Loaded once, stay with you | You carry them at every change |
| Departure | When you choose | When the timetable says |
| Price | Per vehicle | Per person |
| Best for | Groups, families, ski equipment | One or two travelling light |
And back again: taxi from St. Moritz to St. Anton
We drive the transfer in both directions, at the same fixed price. If you need collecting in St. Moritz — after a day out, after an appointment, after dinner — give us the time and the address when you book, and a car is there for it.
If you are arriving by train or bus, give us the service and not just a clock time — then the driver sets off with the real arrival in mind. And if you already know you are coming back, book both directions at once: the car is then allocated to both, late at night and early in the morning included.
Frequently asked questions
Do you drive to St. Moritz at night?
Yes — we're reachable 24/7. This route is on a long-distance fare with no night surcharge: the price at three in the morning is the price at midday. For very early departures we recommend reserving the day before.
How do I book the taxi to St. Moritz?
Fastest by phone on +43 664 930 66 26 or via WhatsApp. You get an instant confirmation with the fixed price and pickup time.
How do I pay for the taxi to St. Moritz?
You pay the driver directly, in cash or by card — Visa and Mastercard are accepted. The price is fixed per vehicle and confirmed when you book, so you know the full amount before the journey starts.
How much is a taxi from St. Anton to St. Moritz?
From €480 for one to three passengers and from €495 for four to eight, per vehicle and one way. There is no night tariff on a long-distance fare, so the price is the same at any hour.
Why does St. Moritz cost more than Zurich Airport when it is closer?
Because of the road, not the distance. Zurich is 200 km of almost continuous motorway. On the St. Moritz route only the first thirty-five kilometres are fast — the S16 down to Landeck — and the remaining hundred and fifteen are ordinary main road and then a narrow Swiss valley road. Kilometres alone give you the wrong answer here.
How long is the drive from St. Anton to St. Moritz?
Two and a half to two and three quarter hours for about 150 kilometres in good conditions. Only the first thirty-five kilometres are quick — the S16 expressway down to Landeck. After that it is main road up the Oberinntal to Pfunds, and past the Swiss border a narrow valley road with hairpins and one village after another, each with its own speed limit. In heavy winter weather allow more again.
Can you drive us to St. Moritz for the Glacier Express or the Bernina line?
Yes. Give us the departure time and we work the pickup back from it with a real margin for the road, not an optimistic one. For a train you cannot afford to miss, travelling the evening before is sometimes the calmer plan — we will say so if we think it.
