 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi All, me and my girl fancy going to Adelboden for a weeks skiing.
Has anyone got any accommodation or package recommendations.
Ideally it would be great to fly from Manchester and get a transfer direct to Adelboden, but it seems that trains and bus are the way to get there once you land.
All thoughts welcome.
Cheers
Mark

fly Manchester to Zurich on BA and then by Swiss Transfer tickets (about 80 euros each) and travel by train and post-bus. The train station is under the airport.

Yeah I grew up around there, in a nextdoor resort.
I used to go often enough. Its OK I guess.
if you have a little gumption you can ski from Adelboden --> Lenk --ST Stephan --> Schoenreid --> Gstaad. theres a five minute bus ride. and a few trees in the way.
You could fly to Basel or geneva it wont make much difference.
I dont beleive the trains are that great, becuse the valley is a dead end..
Cars are expensive to rent in CH. I guess it depends on how you are located in the village. I would fly drive if you dont care about spending a little more

If you want transfer times you can use one of the rail planners. Put your destiniation in as Adelboden, Post - the small bus station in the village. I went in feb this year and took the train from London...
The end-of-week show is worth a look, and there's night sking on the world cup run below it.
The Ski-storage in Oey (Oestersport) is worth knowing about.

Yay another wikiexpert
look closer
The train leaves you high and dry at Frutigen becuase it then goes to the Kandersteg which is not a dead end.
you have an half hour bus trip to Adelboden

nixmap, Yes, hence putting a bus-stop into the rail planner  (I thought you were saying frutigen was a dead end.). The bus times coincide with the trains, which IMO makes the whole thing fairly painless.

Dont take a car .
1. Its is a waste of money
2. You will not use car all week.
3. The train is easier, more relaxing cheaper.
