Bye bye summer, hello winter (Northern Hemisphere)

It is hard to imagine, but our tourism regions and hosts are getting ready for a busy winter season.

The snow sport season kicks off as early as October in some high-altitude resorts and runs through to Easter. Skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing, ice skating, cross-country skiing and winter walks are only some of the many activities enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. Après-skiing, wellness, and culinary delights are also an integral part of a well-rounded winter experience in our Alpine regions.

Our cities and towns tempt visitors with the magic of Christmas and New Year's markets and festivities, the uniquely Austrian ball season, musical performances and special exhibitions, coffee house culture, shopping, and sights less busy than during the summer months.

Why Ski Arlberg

Famous as the "cradle of alpine skiing", the Arlberg is one of the world's largest ski areas with more than 300 km of marked ski runs and 85 interconnected cable cars and lifts. Everything is first-rate: from amazing slopes in St. Anton and the historical village of St. Christoph, to the home-away-from-home feel of Stuben, the international lifestyle of Zürs, and the multiple-award-winning restaurants in Lech. All villages have managed to preserve their authentic Austrian charm, and sustainability is a way of life at the Arlberg. What's more: getting there is easy by train from Vienna, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Zurich and Munich.

Did you know, that Australia is one of the top source markets for visitors to the Arlberg! See for yourself why Aussies love the Arlberg.
