While this tiny resort is not the usual big Swiss destination resort, it does have its' unique assets>>>>>absolutely empty mountain, classic small Swiss Alpine atmosphere in a place hardly any non-Swiss venture to, one the great small spas in Europe {see therme-vals.ch} and excellent slopes. The drawbacks are the remote location and the best lifts are all ropetows. But still an ideal spot for a couple to ski all day and spa all night.
