Wine gondolas "Weingondeln" on the Arlberg – culinary delight high above Lech

Wine tasting at lofty heights: the culinary highlight in April

Experience an unforgettable combination of spring skiing, Austrian wine culture, and alpine panorama. At the legendary wine gondolas on the Arlberg, selected winemakers present their finest wines in the gondolas of the Zugerbergbahn – floating between valley and mountain, surrounded by the majestic mountain world of Lech.
This exclusive event is co-organized by the Pfefferkorn brothers of the 4-star Hotel Tannbergerhof and the 5-star Romantik Hotel Die Krone von Lech, uniquely combining culinary pleasure with nature.
