10 ski huts on the slopes in the skiarea of Lech Zürs

One thing should not be neglected when skiing: The stop for a bite to eat. Those who ski properly will get hungry sooner or later. The Lech Zürs connoisseurs know that practically all houses are located near the slopes. We have listed 10 ski huts for you, which are located directly in the ski area, where you can continue skiing immediately after having lunch.

Balmalp

When skiing the Madloch to Zug and then taking the Zuger Bergbahn, you will pass the Balmalp. You can already hear the music from the icebar, when you are sitting on the lift. When the Balmalp was renewed, a lot of attention was paid on the architecture – the hut is almost completely made out of wood. You can enjoy a wonderful, unobstructed 360 degree panoramic view at 2,100m. Especially the sunset above the snow covered valley Zug is worth seeing.

With so much choice, it gets hard to decide – but one thing is for sure. No matter where you take your lunch break, there is always something delicious to eat, including a great ambience.
