“You should definitely reserve a ski guide from one of the Arlberg ski schools. It’s easy—and wonderfully dramatic—to ski between Lech, Zürs, Zug and Oberlech.
With its small-town charm and hospitable locals, Lech is one of Europe’s friendliest ski towns. Its remote location on the western edge of Austria lends an air of exclusivity, an element further enhanced by a suite of small luxury hotels and the well-heeled visitors and families that return to them annually. This is the kind of place where visitors develop beloved traditions from skiing circuits to fondue dinner rituals, making it perfect for families looking for a getaway with great outdoor activities. With cable cars and gondolas connecting its ski trails to nearby towns like Zurs and St. Christoph, Lech has access to a huge ski terrain even though the town delivers small-town intimacy. What you won’t find is a rowdy après ski scene. For that, you will need to head over to St. Anton or St. Christoph.
