After a long day of cool activities you can perfectly relax in one of the thermal baths or explore the nightlife at the après ski.

fresh spring breeze

during a walk through the alpine meadows, or rent a bike to explore the idyllic mountain roads. Stop along the way to have a delicious picnic between the green alpine meadows. This is also the perfect period to visit a local flower festival. In spring the babbling rivers are full of fish, perfect for a day of wild water fishing. The rapid rivers are also perfect for rafting or kayaking.
