Bonjour mes amis! So, you six intrepid adventurers are planning a spring break ski trip to St. Moritz, the jewel of the Swiss Alps? Magnifique! As your seasoned guide, let me paint a picture of what awaits you. Spring in St. Moritz is a delicate dance between winter's lingering grip and the promise of warmer days. Expect crisp, sunny mornings, perfect for carving down those pristine slopes, often followed by gentler afternoons with perhaps a touch of afternoon snow showers. Don't let that deter you though – the snow is usually in excellent condition even into late March/early April, offering incredible spring skiing.

Now, about those cultural delights! St. Moritz is a melting pot of elegance and exhilarating adventure. The architecture is a stunning blend of traditional Engadine style – think charming chalets with ornate wood carvings – and luxurious, modern hotels. You'll hear a delightful mix of languages – Swiss German, Italian, and English – all adding to the cosmopolitan ambiance. Expect a lively atmosphere, a blend of sophisticated skiers and snowboarders enjoying the end of the season, mingling with locals embracing their spring traditions. The mood is generally upbeat, relaxed, and infused with the exhilaration of the mountains.

Speaking of traditions, don't miss out on indulging in some Bündner Gerstensuppe (a hearty barley soup), Capuns (a local spinach and cheese dish wrapped in chard leaves) or Maluns (buckwheat dumplings). These traditional Engadine dishes will warm you from the inside out after a day on the slopes. And of course, no trip to Switzerland is complete without savoring some delicious Swiss cheese and chocolate! You might even hear some traditional Swiss folk music drifting from a cozy restaurant or bar in the evening.

You’ll notice Edelweiss, Switzerland's iconic flower, might still be clinging to life at higher altitudes. As for pets, you'll likely spot the occasional St. Bernard dog – a breed synonymous with the Swiss Alps, though these gentle giants are more likely to be seen in pictures than roaming freely around the resort.

Now, let's talk budget. Ski passes for six people for a week will cost approximately CHF 2,400. A week’s worth of accommodation in a comfortable apartment or chalet could range from CHF 3,000-6,000, depending on your preferences. Dining, including lunches at mountain restaurants and some nice dinners in town, could add up to around CHF 1,800. Transportation, including flights and local transport, might cost around CHF 1,200. Remember to factor in any additional activities such as après-ski, shopping, or spa treatments.

Therefore, a realistic estimate for a six-person trip to St. Moritz for a week during spring break, without extravagant spending, would be around CHF 8,400 - 12,400. This is just an estimate, and costs can vary widely depending on your choices.

So there you have it, my friends! A glimpse into the magical world of spring skiing in St. Moritz. Remember to pack layers for variable weather conditions, and prepare for an unforgettable adventure filled with breathtaking views, delicious food, and memories to last a lifetime. Happy travels!
