Warth - Schröcken - Community Reviews & Ratings

Fabulous quiet resort linked with Lech and St Anton. Super friendly with a small number of restaurants but all very good quality and value. Our Guesthouse was amazing.

Its seen as the poor relation to Lech and St Anton, being out on a limb. However, it has an outstanding snow record, runs for all abilities and great connectivity with Lech. The resort has enough runs to occupy 2-3 days before heading with the lift connection to Lech. The lift queues are dealt with speedily and it has some cosy mountain restaurants. Nightlife is limited so pick a decent hotel. We stayed in the Biberkopf which is outstanding! A little gem, just not much of a vibe.

Warth was a lovely resort. We stayed in lux-alp apartments which were amazing and a 5 minute walk from the steffisalp lift up the slope. The snow was amazing on the slopes and the link to lech means the ski area is huge. After skiing the two umbrella bars and best-of pub means there is a great atmosphere!

We discovered Warth about 15 years ago and have been skiing there ever since. It's a gorgeously unspoilt Austrian village with a few hotels and apartments, along with quiet nightlife, but as it links into the huge Arlberg ski area, you have access to a skier/snowboarder's dream. The Arlberg lift pass covers a vast area, with various types of well groomed slopes, in all difficulty categories perfect for beginners up to experts, plus a massive amount of fabulous off piste. It includes the resorts of Lech, St.Anton, Zurs, Stuben, Schrocken and St.Christophe. The Warth ski school and mountain guides for guided off piste skiing or boarding are excellent, very knowledgeable and friendly, plus speak very good English. The snow record for the whole area is fabulous and we have had many wonderful days skiing fresh powder. The Warth side of the area is usually the least crowded and we have rarely experienced queues for the lifts. The lift system itself is modern and well connected, with free ski buses too. Accommodation in Warth has always been great, and is more reasonably priced than hotels in Lech or St.Anton. We can personally recommend the Steffisalp, Wartherhof and Lechtalerhof Hotels which we have stayed in. All situated very close to the slopes, very comfortable with luxurious rooms, great food and spa facilities. We can't wait to return to Warth this year.

Warth sits at the North-western end of the Arlberg, linked to Lech. Snow sure it offers a wide range of well groomed pistes suitable for all levels of rider stretched between the villages of Warth and Schrochen. Most pistes are wide offer great opportunities for intermediate riders to confidently move across the whole resort on a mix of blues and reds. Opportunities for advanced riders are on both steep black pistes and marked, ungroomed, itinaries. Lift served off-piste is mainly in areas between or alongside pistes, offering a positive environment for those wanting to try off-piste for the first time. Lifts are almost all chairs, many showing their age by their age by lack of covers and slow speeds. A good range of places for coffee or lunch in the area; much cheaper than anywhere else in the Arlberg area. Well worth a visit if you're in the Arlberg!

Beautiful family friendly resort away from the crowds with excellent infrastructure, great snow record and extensive off piste opportunities.

Great family friendly resort with extremely good nursery slopes allowing children to progress gradually, ski school instructors good with young children ! Resort was good but understandably busy over the Christmas period. A great resort for a short break 3-4 days. A few nice apres bars with lively atmosphere but not going on too late,

If youre a lift nerd - I never thought I would write those words - this is the place to come. Amazing modern infrastructure, fast, heated seats, pull down storm baffles. Huge range of pistes to fly down and I would really recommend Der Wolf as a great spot for lunch or apres. On a stormy day, it looks like its not open, but it is, so just walk in.

Warth is a quiet village but has excellent hotel and food choices: the berg hotel biberkopf was excellent. But it accesses both a lovely ski area and link to the huge Am Arlberg (Lech, Zurs, St Anton) The link is easy and quick, though can get busy! The snow was fantastic, pistes well-groomed. Some lovely long blues and wide reds. Mountain huts are superb -but be warned that some only take cash (old skool!) it was our first time but wed go again!

Being on the edge of the largest resort in Austria allows for access to varied terrain both groomed and ungroomed. Ski touring opportunities available as well, with guides present in the town. Consistent snowfall adds to the appeal.
