How to ski in Lech-Zürs
Beginners and families will find their pistes around Lech and Zürs, down in the valleys where the villages sit at around 1 450 metres.

With 40 per cent blue across the ski area, there is plenty of space to practise before venturing further up the mountain.
The more demanding sections lie higher up, towards the top stations that reach 2 811 metres. Here the terrain becomes steeper and more alpine, with reds and blacks taking over once you leave the valley floor.

What makes the map special is the connection to the whole of Ski Arlberg, a ski area with a total of 305 km of pistes and 88 lifts. From Lech-Zürs you can ski onwards through the entire network without switching ski map, so a day out can easily take you far beyond your home resort if you fancy exploring the neighbouring villages in the ski area.
A practical tip is to plan your day around altitude: the snow often holds up better higher towards 2 811 metres, while the lower pistes around the village can turn heavy later in the day. The vertical drop between village and summit is considerable, so expect varying conditions depending on where in the ski area you happen to be.
