Lech am Arlberg – Winter fun in all its facets
Arlberg’s newest connection – a lift between Zürs and Stuben/Rauz
Opening in the 2016/2017 winter season, the Flexenbahn lift will make skiing in the Arlberg area even more varied and skier-friendly. The new connection between Zürs and Stuben/Rauz allows skiers to reach all the resorts in the Arlberg region on skis – turning Ski Arlberg into Austria’s largest interconnected ski area!
Skiing in the Arlberg region is set to become even more enjoyable! The new cableway link on the Vorarlberg side of the Arlberg massif, between Zürs and Stuben/Rauz, as well as new cableways constructed in 2016 – the Trittkopfbahn I and II and Albonabahn II cableways – involving a total investment of EUR 45 million, are completing the final ‘missing link’. Starting from Zürs, the Trittkopfbahn I lift takes passengers to the new intermediate station, from where skiers can either continue to the new top station of Trittkopfbahn II or use the new Flexenbahn to carry on to Alpe Rauz in Stuben. From there, the Albonabahn II – likewise brand new – is available to take skiers on to Stuben. Furthermore, skiers starting out from Alpe Rauz can conveniently explore the St. Christoph and St. Anton skiing areas. This means that all resorts in the Arlberg skiing area – St. Anton and St. Christoph, Stuben, Zürs, Lech, Oberlech, Schröcken and Warth – are easy to get to on skis. Here in the Arlberg region, home to Austria’s largest lift-connected ski area, winter sport enthusiasts can enjoy no fewer than 305 km of downhill slopes and 87 lifts and cable cars, guaranteeing pure, unadulterated skiing at its very best!
