The town swells in winter, especially January and February, when the slopes are full, while late summer and early autumn see a quieter pace as hikers and cyclists take advantage of milder weather.
- Budgeting
- A careful traveler can manage on about 120–150 CHF per day (≈ 130–160 USD), whereas a comfortable stay often runs 200–300 CHF (≈ 210–315 USD). Accommodations and dining typically dominate the budget; opting for a midday meal at a local stube instead of a hotel restaurant can shave off a noticeable amount. Estimate →
