Gary - advanced skier ⛷️
Apr, 28 - 2025
Unfortunately we had Föhn conditions in The second week of March, resulting in slushy snow on lower slopes in Lech
Skiing in Zürs was much better the greater altitude of 1700+ metres helped greatly
Run 144 was in good condition and relatively quiet Red which helped link into the lift system to travel to StAnton
Run 145 was a great Blue warm up run especially in the morning, often empty
Itineraries 170 and 172 accessed via Madloch offering spectacular views and decents to Zug which then links back to Ober Lech, these were no more difficult than Red runs during our stay, we also used this run to link to Warth, having previously stayed at StAnton it was good to explore Warth and its excellent intermediate terrain, rather than arriving eating lunch and returning to StAnton
We stayed at Boutique Hotel Erzberg a very traditional hotel with excellent food and hospitality only 50 meters away from the ski lift, the hotel has an arrangement with a local ski shop, skis are picked up at 4pm and returned freshly serviced reddy for the next day (ours were back within 2 hours though this may have been exceptional?)
