St. Lawrence's Night

On 12 August 2026, St. Lawrence's Night will once again invite visitors to enjoy a special natural spectacle above Lech Zürs. At an altitude of around 2,350 metres on the Rüfikopf, the clear mountain air and dark night offer ideal conditions for observing the peak of the Perseid meteor shower – an annual spectacle of shooting stars that leaves many small trails of light across the sky.
 

This year, there will be another rare celestial phenomenon: in the early evening of 12 August, a partial solar eclipse will be visible above Lech Zürs – with approximately 90% coverage. Two natural events in one day, creating a special setting for a stay in the mountains.

Details of the schedule and programme will be published here shortly.

Photographs will be taken at this event. The images may be published for marketing purposes on the website, social media channels, and in print media. More information on data protection can be found here.
