Zurich Airport is approximately 2 hours 30 minutes from Lech am Arlberg, travelling east via the A1 motorway and then north into the Vorarlberg Alps. The route takes you from Switzerland into western Austria through some of the most beautiful alpine scenery in the region, with Lech sitting in a spectacular bowl of mountains at the head of the Lech River valley.
Lech in summer offers exceptional hiking in the Arlberg region, with trails ranging from easy valley walks through flower-filled meadows to challenging mountain crossings connecting the resort with neighbouring Zürs and St. Anton. The summer cable car network opens for hiking and mountain biking, with the Rüfikopf summit providing panoramic views over the Vorarlberg and Allgäu Alps. The Lech Zürs Bike and Hike network covers over 100km of dedicated mountain biking routes throughout the region, catering to every level of rider.
Lech's reputation as one of Austria's most refined and exclusive mountain destinations extends fully into summer, with outstanding restaurants, elegant accommodation, and a unique village character preserved by the resort's careful approach to development. Alps2Alps provides private, door-to-door transfers from Zurich Airport, making this exceptional destination conveniently accessible for a summer mountain escape.
