The exclusive ski holiday resort of Lech in the heart of the Arlberg offers a beautiful village and fantastic skiing in a vast skiing area.
The skiing in Lech is best suited to the intermediate although the Ski Arlberg area certainly offers ski terrain to suit all abilities. Skiing in Lech takes place on both sides of the valley as well as in Oberlech. Lech is a favourite for the British and is located amongst the vast powder fields of the Arlberg. The Arlberg resorts of Zurs, St Anton and St Christoph are linked by bus. Whilst the skiing favours the intermediate in Lech, in the right conditions, the off-piste skiing can be exceptional. For the best skiers, a fantastic guided off-piste route from the Valluga (accessed via St Anton) down towards Lech and Zurs can be well worth the money. Lech is close to St. Anton and Zurs, for either more nightlife or more exclusivity, respectively. The resort of Lech is known as the most exclusive in Austria and the village prides itself on immaculate delivery of innovative visitor resources both on the mountain and in the village of Lech itself.
