I can’t say from where I heard it as it may get someone in some bother but the St Anton am Arlberg to Kappl in Paznaun ski lift is pretty certain to get the go-ahead. The ground has yet to be cut for the new lift pylons but from interested parties it has been confirmed with some degree of certainty that the llink is going ahead. Despite a measure of local opposition from some Paznauners the mighty Arlberg ski region is set to reach over toward the highly impressive Ischgl ski region. Kappl currently offers a family / locals ski area with a good top height and near proximity to the Ischgl ski area. That is set to change with the link from the Rendl side of the St Anton ski area into Paznaun. The Arlberg ski area currently has few equals in the Alps, a further expansion into Paznaun would make an unimaginably great ski region. At the other end of the Arlberg ski area there are still plans to link Lech am Arlberg into the Bregenzerwald ski area of Warth. Warth receives more snow than any other ski area in the Alps - not bad stats!
