Luxury Ski Holidays Lech

A charming, luxury ski resort that was once a farming village has been made exclusive by the royalty that have visited, including Princess Diana and other members of European royal families. Centred around the 14th century church and pedestrianised roads, the village has grown over the decades with the addition of stylish, luxury ski hotels and chalets.

 

Lech has retained its rural Austrian village feel, with many of the popular hotels and restaurants being family-run. Skiers will find a variety of well-groomed pistes suitable for all levels and those wanting to cover more mileage can venture further afield to St. Anton and Stuben.
