The Ski Resort
The small rope lift Balsberg is ideal for beginners of all ages. It's located in the south of Unterwössen and is about 400 meters long. It is a very easy slope and uses only real snow.
It also features a terrain park called "Wood Stuff Park" where you can practice sliding on different sizes of rails. This resort also offers night skiing on Fridays, if the weather is appropriate. Food and drinks are available on site, and on Friday evenings there's even a bar.
If you'd like to show off what you've learned, you can participate in the town's championship for skiing and snowboarding that takes place once a year in February.
