Lech Holidays

Once voted the most beautiful village in Europe, and surrounded by meadows and peaks, you're sure to find stunning scenery on holidays to Lech.

Beautiful Lech

Lech hosts the rich and famous in the winter months, so it’s got a stylish selection of boutique shops and sophisticated cafés and restaurants, alongside the more affordable options. But it’s still retained its authentic charm, from the wild flowers and cowbells to the mountain huts with glorious valley views, which you can easily reach by hopping on a summer chairlift.

Picture perfect

Sitting just over the provincial border in Voralberg, the attractive village centre has pretty riverside chalets, a lovely little church and a scenic outdoor pool bordered by forest pines. Its pretty valley location makes it an excellent base for walking, whether you like gentler paths or want to head up into the higher peaks.

Good to know

There won’t be a rep based in your resort, but a rep will meet you at the airport when you arrive and get you on your way. If you’ve got any questions during your holiday, you can call our 24/7 TUI Service Centre at any time.

Bargain Buys

The local markets are always worth a visit - they're great for taking photos and soaking up a bit of atmosphere. And of course, you can scoop up some bargain souvenirs. Farmers' markets are regularly held at the Rufiplatz throughout the summer months.
Mid-Range Buys

There are a handful of sports shops selling casual activewear along the main road. For more shopping options, pop over to St Anton, which has a wider variety to peruse.

Laid-back evenings

There’s not much in the way of exciting nightlife here, but there’s sometimes the odd festival or live folk music performance. It pays to see check out what’s on week by week in resort.
Lively evenings

Lech is a quiet town with just a smattering of drinking holes. Here, a quiet cocktail and a stroll after dinner is the norm.

Eating out

Having been voted one of the most beautiful towns in Europe, it comes as no surprise that Lech’s restaurants have won numerous gastronomic awards and are some of the most highly-rated eateries in the world. Michelin-starred restaurants and mountain huts are in abundance here, so you can experience the best of both worlds – traditional Alpine cuisine and modern, inventive fine dining.
Michelin-starred meals at La Fenice

On the high street, inside Hotel Arlberg, is La Fenice, a Michelin-starred restaurant with an excellent choice of wines, a charming atmosphere and interesting desserts.
Sip fig vodka at Rud-Alpe Gastronomie

A short way up the mountain is the timber cabin, Rud-Alpe Gastronomie. The charming, chalet-style décor makes this hut feel homely and warm, while the dishes are delicious. Their fig vodka is highly recommended.
Pizza for lunch at Schneggarei

Near the bottom of the main lift is Schneggarei, an Austrian restaurant housed in a wooden barn-style building. The interiors are modern and minimalistic and the tables are set over two floors. Their wood-fired pizzas are a popular lunchtime option.

On foot

Lech is a pretty village that’s easy to get around on foot, whether you’re wandering around the shops and cafés, strolling along the banks of the river, or heading further out into the surrounding hills.
Trains

The nearest station is in St Anton, a 30-minute bus ride away. From there, you can catch a train to towns like Bregenz and Lindau on Lake Constance (1 hour 30 minutes) or even Innsbruck (1 hour 15 minutes) – there are two direct trains there in the morning and one direct return train in the afternoon.
Buses

The local bus service, the blue fleet, is free with your Lech Card and offers a regular service to surrounding villages like Zürs, Zug, Warth and Stubenbach. The no. 92 bus will take you to St Anton (30 minutes) but does cost extra. The main bus stop is next to the Rufikopf lift station.
Summer lifts

Your Lech Card also gives you free access to the summer lifts in the area – the Rüfikopf cable car and the Schlegelkopf, Petersboden and Steffisalp chairlifts. These are usually open from the end of June to the beginning/middle of October.

Walking

Where better to enjoy a walking holiday than in a village that was once voted the most beautiful in Europe? Spend lazy days wandering the village itself, browsing boutiques and stopping in one of the many cafés when you want a break. Or take a stroll along the banks of the river and let yourself be soothed by the rushing water. Surrounding Lech is a varied and rugged terrain, with small lakes, pine forests and enough Alpine trails to keep everyone busy – from family walks to mountain hikes. Your free Lech Card will give you access to the summer lifts and the free hiker’s bus.
High Alpine walk to Zürs

This is a medium difficulty walk, but well worth it if you’ve got the energy. Catch the Rüfikopf cable car up to the top and then follow then Alpine trail toward the end of the valley. You can stop for a break along the way at the Stuttgarterhutte, before carrying on down into Zürs. The free hiker’s bus will take you back to Lech, or you can walk back on the mountain road.
Durch das Zugertobel

This moderate level walk takes you along a wonderfully scenic route. Start off at the Wanderstartplatz Postamt and take the free hiking bus towards the Oberlech or the Lech mountain railway. At the Schlössle stop, get off and follow the road round to your right. At the Tannegg viewpoint, continue past the Grubenalpe to the left, up the gravelled path. Come to a stop at the Kriegeralpe, have a rest and a spot of lunch while taking in the views. From here, there's a short climb uphill past the Chluppa stone wall and the Speicherersee to the right.
