Skikjöring
Trotting races have been held on the frozen lake of St. Moritz from the beginning.
Light Norwegian sledges were utilized at that time, since conventional wheels, as used on sand and grass, could not be considered for the snow and ice surface. Nowadays, the sulkies are fitted with aluminium blades, in order to make them as light as possible for the horses‘ special gait around the track.
On Zee Lake
White Turf is not only about races, it is also a social event. The lake becomes the setting and a meeting point for all race lovers.
Locals and holidaymakers savour the flair and the ambiance of the magnificent Alpine surroundings. The sponsors appreciate White Turf as an excellent platform for their customers and guests. In other words, White Turf is simply a quality event not to be missed.
