The circuit, or white ring, starts in Lech, where you take the Rüffikopfbahn up to Zürs on two more lifts. From there, you can take the Seekopfbahn and the Madloch to Zug. Once in Zug, the race route leads to Oberlech and the ring closes with a descent to Lech to the starting point and finish of the white ring.

One of the most legendary ski races in the Alps takes place on Saturday, 21.01.2023. The White Ring - The race is a traditional ski and snowboard race in which all participants have to complete a lap around Lech am Arlberg as quickly as possible. On 22 downhill kilometers with an altitude difference of 5500m spread over six lifts, all ambitious winter sports enthusiasts can put their skills to the test.

As a snowboarder, I will also be taking part in the adventure and am hoping for a bit of reinforcement and competition in my discipline! As of today, only 24 snowboarders have registered, whereas a whopping 1122 skiers have already signed up. However, it is currently only possible to purchase combo tickets and company packages. More detailed information and the opportunity to register at short notice can be found here.

Egal ob, auf Messen, Testevents, Contests, Cometogethers oder Partys, er liebt es ins Gespräch zu kommen und Neues zu erfahren. Auch bei der Wahl des Materials ist er selten wählerisch. Ein- oder zwei Bretter, Timo ist gerne auf der Suche nach weichem Schnee, schönen Hängen und einer inspirierenden Zeit am Berg mit coolen Menschen.

01/08/2020 • Patrick Wehowsky
You could say that the weather gods didn't mean well with the new, old Snow&Safety Conference in Lech am Arlberg this year.

The conditions were indeed challenging for this and therefore anything but unsuitable. -

The Snow and Safety Conference in Zürs am Arlberg is now part of the season opener on the Arlberg for the seventh year in a row.
