Are you a passionate skier or snowboarder looking for a new thrill on your next skiing holiday? Perhaps you’re an adrenaline junkie or an adventurer keen to experience an extraordinary freeride adventure in the Alps? At the 4-star Hotel Tannbergerhof in Lech am Arlberg, the only heliskiing adventure in the whole of Austria awaits you, where you’ll be flown by helicopter to a summit and descend into the valley on pristine deep-snow slopes. Heliskiing (also known as helicopter skiing) and heliboarding in the Arlberg guarantee adrenaline, adventure and unforgettable moments in powder snow!
Lech Zürs am Arlberg is the only ski resort in Austria where heliskiing and heliboarding are permitted at all. Thanks to its perfect location and reliable snow conditions in winter, there are two breathtaking peaks to choose from as landing sites:
There are also two options for the return flight:
What previously sounded like a scene from a James Bond film is something you can actually experience for yourself in the Arlberg. Once the helicopter has landed, vast, untracked deep-snow slopes await you. In glorious sunshine, the runs seem almost deserted, as these high-alpine slopes are reached by no more than a few ski tourers. A freeride adventure in a class of its own, which you’ll only find here!

One thing is certain: you mustn’t leave your camera or mobile phone at home when heliskiing in Austria. You’ll be marvelling at the stunning Alpine panorama even as you’re in the helicopter. And during the hour-long ski or snowboard descent into the Zug side valley near Lech, there are plenty of opportunities to capture perfect shots. Your very own special memento of an extraordinary skiing holiday in Lech am Arlberg.

Due to safety regulations, heliskiing is only permitted when accompanied by experienced ski and mountain guides from the ski schools. The mountain guides will book and arrange the flights for you. Please note that flights only take place from Monday to Friday, subject to suitable weather conditions, and therefore not at weekends or on public holidays. The team at the Hotel Tannbergerhof will be happy to assist you with organising and booking heliskiing or heliboarding through the Lech Ski School.
After an exciting day of heliskiing in the Arlberg region, relax in the in-house wellness oasis at the 4-star Hotel Tannbergerhof. Feel the soothing heat in the sauna or treat yourself to a range of massages and wellness treatments. Afterwards, enjoy delicious dishes and a variety of culinary highlights in the Martinstüberl restaurant, before heading off for après-ski or to the Tannberg Pub. At the only ski-in, ski-out hotel in the centre of Lech, every wish is catered for.
