There is enough parking space at Woe too busy 😔 If you want to go alpine skiing, you should go floodlit in the evening. The slope also has artificial snowmaking 🤷♂️

Of course one of many slopes for apres-ski and certainly great. It would be too boring for me to just go up and down this one slope. Maybe something to practice? Anyway, totally packed there and they were queuing at the lift. Midweek and no vacation.

Also in winter there is a lot of activity here. If the parking lot at Mummelsee is full, you can sometimes find a parking space here. If possible, don't come at the weekend, unless you like the hustle and bustle...
