I've been going to Adelboden for a few years. We always went late January/early February, and even got to see the World Cup.

I believe it's an amazing place, not only are there plenty of runs, but it is also rather unknown. There's rarely any waiting time at all, and the people you meet going down the slopes are mostly very friendly and terribly helpful. Maybe they are not so patient for ignorance and rudeness (That's for my mate Colm!) but that's because of how polite they are themselves.

I must say we also use Jeka. They're great, and any little problem we had was quickly solved.

The runs are wide and the snow was always great. I must say, though, that it is not a resort for experience skiers, there's very little choice for black runs. So, unless it is for a short break and a first time, if you are looking for danger... well I'm sure there are much better out there.
