The impressive winter alpine landscape of Switzerland's Engadine valley, together with the elegant St. Moritz resort, provide a fascinating and exclusive backdrop to the annual Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow. Every January four high-goal teams from various countries do compete on the frozen St. Moritz Lake for the coveted championship title, and the prestige which accompanies it.

Under the patronage of the jewelry and watch producer Cartier, the renowned St. Moritz Polo Club every year organizes the most significant polo tournament on snow to be held anywhere in the world. The Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow is listed in the "Top Events of Switzerland", as publicized within Switzerland itself and around the globe. Regularly for the last several years, between 10,000 and 15,000 spectators have attended the Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow.

Since 1985, when the idea to play polo on the frozen St. Moritz Lake celebrated its world premiere, the Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow has become an indispensible event on the Engadine calendar. At one time considered an extravagant curiosity, this polo tournament has come to accentuate the exquisite image of St. Moritz, and proven itself ideally suited to the chic elegance and high class ambiance to be found in the local legendary "champagne climate". The organizers have certainly succeeded once again to secure exciting participants for this mega event, Cartier Polo World Cup on Snow. The teams from classic polo nations such as Argentina and England promise a spectacular match in the midst of an idyllic, snowcovered alpine setting - certainly the "Top of the World"...
