Lech & Zürs
Lech and Zürs are two of the best loved winter sports resorts in the world. Boasting a vast high altitude domain of over 250km of piste, the villages offer everything you could want from a winter sports holiday - including high quality hotels, fine dining and great après ski. Only 4kms apart, Lech and Zürs are linked by a regular bus service. Both villages are full of international flavour, attracting a wide scope of visitors from all over the world – including royalty! The 'Arlberg Ski Circus' lift pass covers the resorts of Lech, Zürs, Zug, Stuben, St. Anton, Sonnenkopf and St. Christoph.
Beginners
Lech and Zürs both offer gentle nursery slopes, which are located beside the village centres. Long, wide, groomed blue runs are the order of the day.
Intermediates
Tremendous terrain for the intermediate skier. Countless opportunities open up from Lech via the central Schlegelkopf or Schlosskopf lifts. From the other side of Lech centre you can access the slopes of Zürs via the Rufikopf lift. With its amazing ski-in/ski-out location these areas offer a huge variety of blue and red runs.
Advanced
The best and the most challenging off-piste skiing can be found in Lech and Zürs with plenty of testing black runs and routes.
Snowboarding
The Schlegelkopf-Hang is the home of the “Boarderland Lech” - an ambitiously constructed slope paradise for snowboarders. The terrain - almost exclusively connected by chairlifts - offers opportunities to train and to show off with 1.2km of pipes, jumps and slides.
