Oberlech sits roughly 200 metres above Lech am Arlberg on a south-facing plateau, reachable from the valley by cable car or on foot. The car-free environment means the area around the lodge is quiet and pedestrian-friendly, with snow conditions on the plateau typically reliable throughout the season. The Ski Arlberg network — connecting Lech, Zürs, St. Anton, and Stuben — is directly accessible from the slopes outside the door. Lech village, with its restaurants, boutiques, and après-ski options, is a short cable car descent away. For travel logistics, Innsbruck Airport is approximately 90 minutes by road, while Zurich Airport offers a roughly two-hour transfer. St. Anton am Arlberg railway station, with direct connections across Austria and into Switzerland, is around 30 minutes by car.

The sun-drenched, car-free luxury balcony of the Arlberg.
Oberlech is a picturesque, car-free ski village situated at 1,750 meters on a sun-drenched plateau directly above Lech am Arlberg. Known as the "balcony of the Arlberg," it is an exclusive, highly sought-after destination featuring an intricate network of underground tunnels to service its luxury hotels without disturbing the pristine, snow-covered streets above. Access to the village in winter is exclusively via the Bergbahn Lech-Oberlech cable car, making it a true winter wonderland where guests step straight out of their accommodations and onto the slopes. The atmosphere is serene and deeply luxurious, with a heavy emphasis on high-end gastronomy, sunny terrace dining, and impeccable Austrian hospitality. As an integral part of Ski Arlberg, Austria's largest interconnected ski area, Oberlech offers seamless access to 302 kilometers of immaculate pistes and world-renowned freeride terrain. Whether tackling the famous "White Ring" circuit, enjoying gentle beginner slopes right outside the hotel door, or exploring the vast off-piste powder of the wider Arlberg region, skiers of all levels are flawlessly catered to.
Oberlech provides unparalleled ski-in/ski-out access to the vast Ski Arlberg network, catering brilliantly to sweeping intermediate cruisers and absolute beginners alike. Advanced skiers and thrill-seekers can easily connect to the legendary steep powder bowls of Zürs, St. Anton, and the famous Valluga.
