Winter vacation in the Lech Valley
Covered in a white blanket of snow, the Tyrolean Lechtal sometimes shows its most beautiful side during the cold season. Far from the bustle of ski tourism, the Austrian nature park region is dedicated entirely to more sustainable winter vacations.
For example, extensive winter hiking trails and cross-country skiing trails offer you the best conditions for a time out in the snow. Countless paths lead through snow-covered forests, past the "last wild thing" - the wild river Lech - as well as remote power spots. Hardly anywhere else does the originality and vastness of the natural landscape show itself as clearly as in the Tyrolean Lech Valley.
For the physical well-being on the way 9 comfortable winter magic huts provide, which come up with regional delicacies and are attainable over broadly developed panorama routes. If you even have a toboggan with you, you can look forward to a sleigh ride back to the valley. You will find a particularly great deal of peace and time to breathe in the four tranquil time-out villages of Hinterhornbach, Gramais, Pfafflar and Kaisers. Far away from any civilization, many hiking trails and ski tours lead from the villages directly into the heart of the Lechtal and Allgäu Alps.
Passionate ski tourers are offered a fascinating opportunity to make their tracks through the untouched, snow-white landscape. With spacious, untouched slopes and snow-covered forests, the Tyrolean Lechtal between the majestic Lechtal and Allgäu Alps is a true paradise for ski tourers seeking winter solitude and freedom in the mountains. On a total area of 42 square kilometers, 116 routes are available, which appeal to beginners as well as experienced professionals. In addition, there are insider tips that promise an unforgettable mountain experience.
Clearly more space is also available to skiers who love the "classic" among winter sports. 6 smaller ski areas offer families, children, returning skiers and beginners the best conditions to improve their skills and enjoy exuberant ski days on extensive slopes. Adjacent to the Arlberg, the Lechtal also offers you the possibility to ski in Austria's largest connected ski area "Ski Arlberg". A free ski bus is at your disposal.
