I suggest going during the weekday afternoons, like around 2 pm, when it’s less crowded. I went on a Saturday and it was tough to find a good spot to relax.

If you’re planning to chill by the sauna, try to bring a book... I thought I'd just relax in silence, but the wait time was longer than expected!

I recommend checking the entry fee beforehand. I thought it was going to be higher but found out they have discounts on certain days, which helped me save a few euros!

My advice is to bring your own toiletries and a towel. The ones they provide are okay, but using your own makes things much more pleasant!

I think renting gear can get pricey, so if you're a frequent snowboarder or skier, invest in your own equipment. It’s worth it in the long run and often cheaper in the end.
My advice is to check the weather before heading out. We went on a day with poor visibility, which cut our fun short. A sunny day makes all the difference!

If you're new to snowboarding, I suggest taking a lesson first. The pros at the rental agency can recommend some great instructors, and it'll really help you get started confidently

My advice is to grab a local snack while you're there. I found a yummy bakery nearby that had great pastries and it was just the pick-me-up I needed after my session.

I recommend checking the wind forecast before you go. I didn't, and it turned out to be too calm for windsurfing the day I visited. Save yourself some time and avoid disappointment!
