Summary
There are, of course, other resorts with reliably good snow, or with uncrowded easy and intermediate pistes, or with traditional chalet-style architecture, or with little or no traffic, or with teatime raves on the slopes. But we’re hard pressed to think of other resorts that match all of Obergurgl’s attractions.
The resort attracts a lot of British visitors, many returning time after time, booking the same hotel a year in advance to avoid disappointment, and it’s not difficult to see why. Many reporters stress what a good resort it is for families.
