The 10 most beautiful ski runs in the Lechquellen Mountains

The best conditions for the Fürmelesmähdern
Backcountry Skiing · Lechquellen Mountains
Warth - Fürmesle
Toprecommended route Difficulty moderate
4 km
1:00 h
0 m
656 m
A long, albeit not particularly steep downhill variant, from which you used to be able to ski from Lech to Warth. The merger of the two ski areas has made this variant somewhat more popular, as you can get back to the starting point very quickly.

An easy variant that can be skied very well even in tricky conditions. The terrain is not very demanding. By skilfully choosing your tracks, you can still find good powder even in strong sunlight.

Very beautiful variation with a long traverse at the start. There is a steep narrow section in the middle, which can be a little uncomfortable with long skis. Then it's a moderate descent down to piste no. 10 and on to Zürs.

A relatively short but varied run in very safe terrain. Also possible in tense avalanche conditions and poor visibility.

A very rewarding variant with a short ascent, which is possible either with skins or on foot. Unfortunately, the Flexenmulde bus stop no longer exists, which is why you have to walk about 10 minutes along the road to the Flexenhäusl at the end of the tour to reach the "Muggengrat Taeli -10" ski piste.

Spectacular variation from the Madloch exit high above the slopes of Zürs. However, safe conditions are a basic requirement.

Genius freeride descent on the Arlberg, which must be worked out with a short hike.
