Experience Lech at the Arlberg in summer
Summer retreat at the 5-star hotel "Gasthof Post" in Lech: the region at the Arlberg has a very special charm in summer. Go on long and short hikes with experienced mountain guides, eat "Kässpätzle" (cheese spaetzle) at our Formarin mountain hut or have breakfast in the midst of flowering summer meadows.
The Ebra Park garden belonging to the property has been created as a wonderful flowering paradise with indigenous flowers, shrubs and woods, walking paths between secluded sunbathing lawns and, as the crowning glory, a small tea house where guests can meet informally in the afternoons.
Tip: Participation in the weekly programme of Arlberg Alpin is free of charge for our guests!
Summer vacation activities
There are also no limits to your sporting activities: swing on one of our mountain bikes or the golf club on the nearby golf courses Lech (3 km) or Bludenz-Braz (35 km).
Every year we offer a variety of special packages to the summer guests of the "Post". Visit the Bregenz Festival or the Lech Classic Music Festival. Benefit from this wide range of programmes for your individual leisure time activities!
From just one overnight stay on, you have the opportunity to purchase the "Lech Card" at a favourable price. It is unique in the entire Alpine region and offers unlimited holiday fun through the use of the forest swimming pool, tennis courts, cable cars and chair lifts, local and hiking bus and much more.
Hiking in Lech at the Arlberg in summer
Hiking is a discovery of nature, a healing source of relaxation and tranquillity, far away from any hustle and bustle. The amazing mountain world around Lech is a vast hiker's paradise with over 350 km of marked trails. Late summer is the ideal season for very special mountain experiences.
Our hiking guide Elisabeth will accompany our guests on exciting hikes three days a week next summer.
Late summer as the perfect hiking season
The shadows are getting longer and the summer heat is giving way to clear air with wonderful long-range views. Late summer at the beginning of autumn is high season for hikes and tours. Enjoy the beginning colouring of the Alpine flora! On special themed hikes such as the Green Ring and the Lech Trail you can discover exotic orchids, find petrified fossils, take a journey back in time, learn about the healing power of Alpine herbs and trace the Lech back to its source.
The well-thought-out development with cable cars, chair lifts and the hiking bus leaves nothing to be desired. You can easily reach the starting points and return home to the 5-star hotel "Gasthof Post" from many places without a car.
Golf holiday at the Vorarlberg
Lech also boasts a golf course. When golfing at the Arlberg, you play at the highest level. In 2016, the 9-hole course opened in the Zuger Valley - now guests have the opportunity to play on Austria's highest golf course in a breath-taking landscape. The 5-star hotel "Gasthof Post" is one of the initiators and house guests receive green fee discounts. The practice facility in Lech with the Arlberg golf school is available for taster sessions and licence courses.
