The area is not that big. Skiing is nice. The slopes are long and some are very technical. Large off-pise area. Mostly is skiing to the village of Wiler (bottom station) not possible. The views are very nice. The valley is beautiful. Large tracks for langlaufen and hiking. In the evening you can see the mountain goats east of Eisden (small village near Blatten). The buses are free with a skipass. Buses drive between the station of Goppenstein and Blatten and they stop, of course, at the bottom station of the cable car. The restaurants are ok, the food also. Only a few hotels which are not big hotels. Much possiblllity to rent chalet in every village. Reaching the valley from the south is possible by car. From the north you have to go with the car on the train at the station of Kandersteg. The airfield of Zurich is, I think, 2 hours by train. Never done that.
