Enough boasting – here’s the hard data. A total of 45 million Euros were invested in Austria’s largest interconnected ski area. Four new cable-car lifts were constructed – and all without any major ecological impact. In fact, quite the opposite is true – around 14,400 ski bus trips between Rauz and Zürs are now a thing of the past, since this route is now covered by the heated 10-seater Doppelmayr cable-car lift.
And this is how the new lift network runs: Starting from Zürs the Trittkopfbahn I lift takes passengers to the new intermediate station from where skiers can either continue to the new top station of Trittkopfbahn II or use the new Flexenbahn to carry on to Alpe Rauz in Stuben. From there the Alponabahn II – likewise brand new – is available to take skiers on to Stuben. Furthermore, skiers starting out from Alpe Rauz can conveniently explore the St. Christoph and St. Anton skiing areas. This means that all resorts in the Arlberg skiing area – St. Anton and St. Christoph, Stuben, Zürs, Lech, Oberlech, Schröcken and Warth – are easy to get to on skis. Here in the Arlberg region, home to Austria’s largest lift-connected ski area, winter sport enthusiasts can enjoy no fewer than 305 km of downhill slopes and 87 lifts and cable cars, guaranteeing pure, unadulterated skiing at its very best!
