Top 5 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Lech, Austrian Alps

June 13, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Glitzy Lech is one of Austria's most moneyed resort towns. Pricy, posh palaces abound, but this ostentatious, old-school winter wonderland has accommodations and a place on the pistes for all budgets. Popular since the 1920 and 1930s, this former farming town has managed to retain its original character and charm. Its somewhat isolated location forces an often tricky drive in inclement weather but also is part of what appeals to celebrity admirers. Nearest airports are Zurich and Innsbruck.

The best skiing in the Alps and where alpine skiing was born. Something for everyone. Great pistes, great ski routes. Lech-Zürs is more suited for families, St. Anton for the younger crowd. Crowd is not really the word to use, as the pistes are very rarely overcrowded.Most of the lifts heave seat heating and the panorama is breath taking.

We just came back from staying in Lech and while we were there heard about the Weisse Ring, which of course we had to try! Before I go into details of the route we took, it's worth saying that unless you are trying to do this swiftly, take your time and enjoy doing some extra runs along the way, otherwise you will feel like you are just on lifts the whole time. Starting from Lech, we took the Rufikopf gondola over the mountain, where you can either go down a blue or red run to the Schuttboden t-bar drag lift. Then your only (on-piste) option is a fun blue run (185) down to the Trittalp ski lift. From there it's either a blue, red or mix of the two to get down into Zurs for either the Seekopf or Zursersee lifts. *If you want to get in some runs do that on this side of the mountain before "crossing the street" over to Seekkopf/Zursersee. Once at the top of these, it's a quick run down the 165 red to the Madloch lift. *a few notes here - get in some runs on this side of the mountain before heading to the Madloch lift. Second, the 165 red starts steep and you need all the speed you can get, as this connection rises and falls, and you'll still end up "walking". So be prepared! Lastly, the Madloch lift is an older, open lift so if the weather is crap you'll feel it. Once off the Madloch you can warm up with some fun red runs! The 170-171-172 are all very skiable as you make your way down to Zug and the Zugerberg lift. At a few points they even offer an "easy" option if you are feeling tired or a bit too challenged. The Zugerberg lift is the last one, and again it's an older, open 2 seater so bundle up if needed. Once off you can take a quick town via the Balmengrat (a red rope running along a flat section of the 200 blue, so do use it), then once you reach the proper start of the 200 blue you can take that all the way back down into Lech, or throw in a few reds (not many to choose from). And that's it, you've done it!
