Lech Zürs am Arlberg is not just a dot on the map of the Austrian Alps — it is the birthplace of alpine skiing history. The Lorunser Sport Hotel Zürs has become a symbol of this region, combining sporting tradition with refined comfort. Whether you are planning a trip or simply want to appreciate the scale of alpine landscapes, this live webcam allows you to see the mountainside and surroundings in real time.
History of the Lorunser Sport Hotel: Traditions of Alpine Hospitality
Founded in 1927, the Lorunser Sport Hotel has evolved from a modest mountain refuge to one of the most prestigious addresses in Arlberg. Now in its third generation of family ownership by the Johum family, it preserves the spirit of alpine hospitality. The hotel is positioned as a Design Boutique Hotel where alpine grace meets personalized service and sporting tradition. Rooms are decorated in a traditional rustic style with abundant wood, yet equipped with modern work and relaxation areas.
Lech Zürs am Arlberg: The Cradle of Alpine Skiing
Lech Zürs is rightly considered the birthplace of alpine skiing in the Alps. Located in Austria's westernmost federal state of Vorarlberg, practically on the border with North Tyrol, this resort sits at the Flexenpass. Lech Zürs is described as a "deep snow paradise": runs here typically start right on the peaks in deep snow and end at the hotel doorstep. It is one of Austria's most exclusive ski enclaves, drawing fans of off-piste descents.
The Arlberg Ski Area: Scale and Records
The Lech Zürs region is constantly evolving. In 2013, the Auenfeldjet lift connected Zürs with Warth-Schröcken, and three years later Flexenbahn linked Zürs with Rauz and Stuben. This united St. Anton with Lech, Zürs, Warth, and Schröcken into the largest ski area in Vorarlberg. The Lorunser Hotel's ski room is equipped with direct access to the lifts, making the hotel's strategic location ideal for skiers.
Spa and Gastronomy: Recovery After the Slopes
After an active day on the slopes, the sport hotel offers comprehensive relaxation. The spa center includes a sauna, swimming pool, massage services, hammam, and fitness room. The hotel restaurant delights even the most discerning guests: the menu features vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free dishes, which is rare for traditional alpine resorts.
