Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

It's the concrete mixing trucks that get me. Immaculate. You don't see them like that here.

Your notice that most trucks & vans are kept immaculate on the continent especially Holland, Germany,Switzerland,Austria.

Theres a law over here in Holland. Trucks have to be kept clean. Also another law trade vans,taxis are not allowed to be parked on streets overnight they have to be garaged or parked at a central site.

Sounds like some very sensible rules to me. It really annoys me when inconsiderate van drivers park near junctions making emerging from them a tricky business.

I'm not quite clear - is this just the first stage of Galzig or the second stage too? (The third stage being the Valluga lift)
Unless it is both there will be quite a bottleneck up there instead.

Hello all!
We're a family group of 8 adults and 5 kids. We already have the flight tickets to Zurich airport and have decided to try St. Anton first week of December (between 2nd until 9th). My question is on regards of the "sure-snow" what this resort could offer us within that season period? Do you know what we could find there? Any other suggestion in the Zurich radius of 3 hours for the transfer?

Many thanks in advance.
BTW I'm not sure if I have post in the right place of the forum..

The double loop monocable is being strung.

Its going to be weird using it having watched it being built from scratch.

Hopefully by late March any technical niggles (or disasterous catastrophes), will have been ironed out. Toofy Grin

Hello folks!
Finally we have choosen Lech in the Arlberg area, between 2nd and 9th of December. We've booked a beautiful house with three apartments for 13 people at Oberlech. hopefully this year will snowfall there within that period. Anybody has experience skiing in Lech in that season period? I guess they'll make artificial snow with cannons, at least...'cause would be terrible go there and not being able to enjoy those slopes...I'm praying and praying so much... wink

If theres not any natural (unlikely) they got snowmaking so there will not be a problem. Oberlech is fantastic. Your luggage is transported by underground railway !

stanton, no it isn't! There's a tunnel system connecting the cable car to ( almost ) every hotel in the village, but there isn't an underground railway. They rely on porter power to get your luggage from the cable to the hotel. Having said that, you are right, Oberlech is fantastic! There are no cars in the entire village, for the simple reason that there are no roads!

Are the tunnels 'unter Oberlech' for walking through, then?

Another Austrian ski resort - Serfaus - has a mini underground railway to get you around, which enabled the place to pedestrianise above.

That's an interesting link. I'd been looking for photos. Thanks.

Still looking for a photo of a lampbus. I googled the name and got this one photo from Hong Kong International Airport:

Is that really a lampbus?

David Goldsmith, yes the whole village is linked up by a web of underground tunnels for walking. If I remember rightly they also drive electric carts through them for transporting the luggage to the hotels. The first time I booked a weekend in Oberlech I was blissfully ignorant of these arrangements and actually drove up the road as far as the entrance to the tunnel, and then spent ten minutes having the facts of life in Oberlech explained to me by someone on the other end of the intercom who absolutely refused to open the barrier for me rolling eyes Drove all the way back down again and dumped the car in the underground car park in Lech, directly opposite the cable up to Oberlech. Gave the luggage to the chaps in the cable car, and magically everything appeared in my hotel room half an hour later... Cool is the only word for it. Plus the hotel was wonderful, great view, brilliant food, great bar and of course ski in ski out. What more can you ask for?
