(Translated by Google) A beautiful ski resort with wonderfully groomed slopes. The chairlift is getting old and has been brought up to date with the latest technology. Ideal for families and beginners. For advanced users, however, it can quickly get boring. I still thought it was great because you can work on your technique on empty slopes. (Original) Ein wunderschönes Skiresort mit wunderbar präparierten Pisten. Der Sessellift ist in die Jahre gekommen und konnte Mal auf den Stand der aktuellen Technik gebracht werden. Für Familien und Anfänger ideal. Für Fortgeschrittene kann es allerdings schnell langweilig werden. Ich fand es dennoch toll, weil man auf leeren Pisten an seiner Technik arbeiten kann.

(Translated by Google) It is a small season, but the snow is one of the best I have ever had. The slopes are very good and the rental prices for equipment and ski passes are not expensive at all. One downside is the few hours of light, but there is nothing you can do! 100% recommended (Original) Es una estación pequeña, pero la nieve es de las mejores que he probado.
