Advantages: A really friendly resort - great for families, with a real sense of traditional Austria.

Disadvantages: Not really big enough for longer than 5 days.

I loved Fulpmes! We went about 3 years ago, and although the resort isn't massive, there's some good solid skiing to be done and it's not particularly crowded either - even at peak season! I loved the wide, winding blue runs and the more challenging reds were great too - quite tough, compared with other reds I've skiied in Austria. The fact that you're doing a lot of your skiing in the treeline is also great, and there's tons of absolitely brilliant off-piste, great for powder monkeys. Not sure from a snowboarding point of view...I'd say most boarders would probably get bored, although there was a pretty cool snowpark. It is a skibus job, (or a short walk uphill from the small village), so not the MOST easy to access, but the lack of crowds and general intimate feel of the resort means that's all good. The food was great on the slopes too, and not overpriced.

Summary: Lots of pretty off-piste and challenging reds. Good for an adventurers!
