The St. Moritz–Corviglia Funicular (German: Standseilbahn St. Moritz–Corviglia; STMC) is a funicular railway in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland. The line links the town of St. Moritz at 1848 m with the Corviglia summit and ski area at 2489 m, and comprises two sections of differing gauge, with passengers changing cars at the intermediate station of Chantarella.
At Corviglia, the funicular connects with an aerial tramway to the summit of Piz Nair.
