Starting in Oberlech, the sledge route winds 1.2 kilometres down to Lech. What is simply great fun by day is thoroughly atmospheric after nightfall. The illuminated run is open until 10.00 p.m.

As a subtle alternative to the pistes, hiking with winter or snow shoes is becoming increasingly popular. With the "Sonnenabo" guests can use the lifts and cable cars without winter sports equipment - and enjoy the magnificent views on the highways.
You will find not only snow experts but also ice experts here: the natural skating ground in Zürs as well as the indoor ice rink at the Hotel Monzabon are open daily for a round of ice skating or curling. The Alpine Center Lech is the right place for ambitious icefall climbers.
