Personal highlights

  1. Urdenfürggli: main pass at 2,500 metres between Arosa and Lenzerheide
  2. Gondola: connecting two major yet independent Swiss ski resorts in 2014
  3. Urdental: mysterious valley with a tragic legend between the two resorts
  4. The good: with one ski pass you can now ride within two different resorts
  5. The bad: the resort is very large and the ski pass became more expensive
