About this app

The Aletsch Arena App is the perfect digital holiday guide for your stay in the Aletsch Arena. In it you’ll find cable car departure times, restaurants that are open, the status report, webcams, a map of the resort and much more. The most important information you need locally is summarised concisely in the Aletsch Arena App. The “Near you” function displays content that’s within close reach of your location (could come in handy, don’t you think?). You can choose not to miss out on anything and activate the “Messages", so you’ll always be up to date with what’s going on in the Aletsch Arena.

Discover
Here you’ll find the latest news, restaurant information (opening hours, type of food, offers, etc.), events, offers that can be booked online but also locally, a tour portal with tips on hiking routes, mountain-bike and snowshoe trails, etc. The “Photo wall” function lets you take your own personal souvenir photo in front of the Great Aletsch Glacier at Moosfluh valley station, Bettmerhorn mountain station and Eggishorn mountain station – try it for yourself!

Live
As the name suggests, this section features live updates from the Aletsch Arena with webcams, the status report on the lifts, slopes, etc., cable car timetables and of course an overview of the current weather in the Aletsch Arena. Current outlook? Beautiful weather!

Shop
Everything your shopping heart desires. The “Shop” section makes it easy to fill your shopping cart with a wide range of products: Cable car tickets, Experiences, Accommodations, Baggage cart, Vouchers and much more. Have fun shopping!

Ski map / Map
In winter it’s the “Ski map” and in summer the “Map”. In both cases, it’s a handy tool for displaying excursion destinations in the Aletsch Arena on a map and determining your location. In winter, you even get a suggested route to the desired excursion destination that takes you along the ski trails. Although, for this to work, you have to be within the ski area. That’s logical, right?

Ratings and reviews

unusable. when you go to "map", which is arguably the most important part of the app, it's simply a bitmap map, awkward zoom with two fingers, you can't select neither slopes nor lifts, but the bottom half of the screen is occluded with cards (bars, restaurants), that randomly pop up again when I move around d the nap.

This is mostly just a glorified frontend for the website. The map supposedly contains a navigation or route planning feature which I found unusable. The whole app is not so much resource hungry as resource addicted. The app could be useful if e.g. cable car time tables would be buffered and available offline - but they are not.
