For sure it's an unusual experience to watch horses racing
in snow. Even more so on a frozen lake. But that's exactly
what happens every year - for three weekends in Feburary in
the Alpine city of St Moritz.
Attracting the wealthy, the racing-enthusiast and curious
traveller in equal measure - the setting of the White Turf
on St Moritz's frozen lake surrounded by Swiss Alpine scenery
really make this event something special.
Naturally enough, the finish-line is an ever popular place
to watch the race - but the first corner is also an excellent
place to catch a glimpse of the racing. And get some great
photos too.
