Restaurants in Zurs
There's an abundance of fine-dining restaurants within Lech and Zürs, most of which have a traditional Austrian theme. The Albona Nova has an excellent reputation and, as is mostly the case in these Austrian resorts, the restaurants within hotels offer some of the best options in the evening, particularly the Zürserhof, Lorunser and Hirlanda. If you're on a tighter budget then you'll be able to find a good standard Italian to grab a pizza.

Zürs is a fairly quiet ski resort but there are some bars and clubs to choose from if aprés ski is something you enjoy. Ambiente and the Sporthotel Zürsersee are great for drinks once you're off the snow for the day.

Zürs ski resort has a fantastic landscape that is well worth exploring, whether you're a skier or not. You can watch the feeding of the wild deer on a beautiful guided sunset walk, or if you're looking for an adrenaline rush, try tubing on a giant blow-up tyre along a specially designed track.
