WINTER FUN

Private luxury moments.

Mountains. Time. Space. These treasures are what make Lech Zürs an internationally renowned place to which people long to return. The mountain village was awarded the title of the "most beautiful community in Europe" by the Entente Florale Europe 2004 and is one of the 11 elite "Best of the Alps" most traditional Alpine destinations. It has been magically attracting skiing enthusiasts for over a century.

But it has more to offer too. Those who don't fancy a thrilling downhill ski run or powder descent will discover plenty of enchanting alternatives in Lech Zürs. Gourmets are impressed by the quality of the award-winning restaurants in the Arlberg region. The fact that Lech Zürs is also referred to as “World Gourmet Village” bears testimony to that. Apart from its variety of offers, guests in the Arlberg region enjoy one thing above all else: the breath-taking mountain landscape which surrounds Lech Zürs like a protective wall, deflecting the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

This makes it easier to take a deep breath and relax. The mountains give back time and space.

IN THE BEST HANDS AT ALL TIMES Spending time in the mountains is a part of any holiday on the Arlberg. However, this brings with it a certain risk of injury.

Situated at the heart of the skiing region, Dr Rhomberg’s outpatient clinic specialising in sports medicine and accident care with its own day hospital is the first port of call after an accident.

The best advice.

The first step to recovery is a precise diagnosis. Alongside state-of-the-art devices such as an open MRI scanner and CT scanner, a wealth of experience spanning three generations plays a pivotal role.

The best treatment.

The Unfallsanatorium Dr. Rhomberg (sanatorium for accident care) treats a wide range of sports injuries with the help of advanced and gentle procedures – from arthroscopic joint surgery right through to minimally invasive fracture treatment. Most surgical interventions are arranged on an outpatient basis, however some injuries require a longer stay in hospital as an inpatient.

The best care.

Professional follow-up treatment is carried out in the in-house physiotherapy practice of Astrid Rhomberg, MAS, so your holiday can continue close to the hotel and your family in a pleasant atmosphere and in a comfortable room with a view over the mountains.

The most restful part of the stay is that you know you are not only in pleasant environment, but in good hands, too.

NEW ON THE ARLBERG

A new dimension of skiing The Arlberg region has been the home of passionate skiing for more than 100 years. The desire to connect the entire Ski Arlberg ski area has almost as rich a history as skiing itself. This dream has now become reality. Thanks to the construction of the new Flexenbahn cable car, the Arlberg region has become the largest connected ski area in Austria and the 5th largest in the world.

THE LARGEST CONNECTED SKI AREA IN AUSTRIA In order to explore the full extent of the Ski Arlberg ski area, even passionate skiers will need lots of time. The vastness of Austria's number one skiing region is more than just a casual phrase – it is a promise of quality. Thanks to the 88 lifts and cable cars, skiers can explore 305 kilometres of linked ski runs. Add to this more than 200 kilometres of high-Alpine powder snow sections on the open skiing terrain.

30

FLEXENBAHN CABLE CAR The Flexenbahn's modern gondolas transport guests from Alpe Rauz to ZĂźrs via the rough Ochsenboden ridge in just 6 minutes.

R U N O F FA M E The 85-kilometre round trip with an elevation change of 18,000 metres starts at Rendl in St. Anton and leads via ZĂźrs and Lech to Warth and back. Information boards along the way remind readers of the great skiing pioneers and stars who have skied down the slopes of the Arlberg in the past.

F R E E R I D I N G PA R A D I S E Let this number sink in for a moment: nine meters of fresh snow.

This is the amount of snow which has fallen on average on the Arlberg since 1946/47. The combination of naturally abundant snow, variety of powder snow routes and increased safety thanks to the densely forested areas attract off-piste enthusiasts: the Arlberg is extremely popular among freeriders.

S N O W PA R K At a size of 3.6 hectares, the Snowpark Lech boasts 20 obstacles, all carefully shaped by the park's crew every day - with the same passion the riders later dedicate to perfecting their tricks. Located at 1600 metres above sea level, the Snowpark meets the requirements of both professionals and beginners. The Easy Park provides novices with ample opportunities to practise their first jumps and tricks while the Medium and Pro-Line are intended for snowboarders and freestylers who wish to improve their skills. www.lechzuers.com/winter

Every year, Lech's restaurateurs and sommeliers select the "Lech Festival Wine" from the Lower Austrian Weinviertel region for their guests. Beyond the Arlberg, this culinary cooperation has also linked Lech's partner towns of Beaver Creek (USA), Kampen on the island Sylt (Germany) and Hakuba near Nagano (Japan) for over 20 years. The winning wines will celebrate a key anniversary in the coming year – 150 years.

THE WINNING WINES An independent jury selects the winning Weinviertel DAC wines in the Grüner Veltliner and Zweigelt categories, together with red wine cuvée. The project, which falls under the authority of the Probus winemakers’ initiative run by Generali, is conducted in collaboration with the regional wine committee of the Weinviertel itself and the Weinstrasse Weinviertel association.

G R Ü N E R V E LT L I N E R , A SPICY AND PEPPERY DELIGHT The Lech Festival Wine – Weinviertel DAC – is closely connected to the Grüner Veltliner grape variety. This

LECH CARD

Would you like to get your hands on the key to exploring the entire range of summer activities in Lech Zßrs? It’s called the Lech Card. From travel on the summer cable cars to day trips in the Zugertal valley and visiting the swimming pool: this leisure time ticket opens up a whole world of possibilities.

ARLBERG CLASSIC Legends of the automobile world and a fascinating landscape are the perfect ingredients for the spectacular ARLBERG CLASSIC Car Rally. Impressing the spectators each year with rare classics, the top-level participants have to master some 625 kilometres from the Arlberg to Zugspitze mountain and back in just 3 days.

L EC H P H I LOS O P H I C U M Since its inception in 1997, the Lech Philosophicum has established itself as an international centre for philosophic exchange. Surrounded

by Lech’s mountains, its participants engage in immensely interesting debates and encounters revolving around the central issues of our time.

LECHWEG TRAIL The Lechweg trail clearly shows just how much the Lech River characterises this region: from its source close to Formarinsee lake, it is unstoppable in its course to Füssen in the southern Allgäu region. When walking along the Lechweg trail, long-distance hikers follow the course of the river and discover some of the most magnificent places in Europe’s last wild river landscape.

TA N N B E R G W E G T R A I L Tannberg used to be the name of the Walser people judicial district which included Schröcken, Warth and Lech. And it’s this legacy which you can explore when walking along the Tannbergweg trail. Partly negotiating narrow, high-Alpine trails, the themed trail leads hikers through the charming natural landscape and – over 57 stations – introduces them to the sites, places of residence and fairy-tales which have shaped the history of the Walser people.

DOORS Nine doors designed by artists from five countries: the art installation found along the Green Ring trail at over 2,000 metres above sea level highlights the boundaries in the landscape and opens up new space at the same time.

GOLF At 1,500 metres above sea level, Lech offers a 19-hectare playground for all those who are passionate about improving their handicap. Located in the picturesque Zugertal valley, the nine-hole course is suitable for players of all levels and landscaped in such a way that players need to strike their ball across the Lech River several times. www.lechzuers.com/lech-im-sommer 79
