Furx: Ski Resort, Views and Hotels

You can narrow down your hotel search in Furx according to specific travel interests: winter sports, regional cuisine, views and historical sites. The ski resort has lifts for learning to ski and designated ski touring routes; Peterhof on Alpe Furx also offers views across the Rhine Valley. The Chapel of Saints Peter and Paul adds two dated milestones in its building history to these themes. Consider which aspect matters most for your stay before comparing hotels in Furx.

Winter sports in Furx: lifts, runs and ski tours

Furx ski resort has a drag lift; at Zwergberg, a conveyor belt and a rope lift complement the facilities. Children and beginners can learn to ski on these lifts. If you’re planning to learn or travelling with children, this is a specific point to consider. The resort operates seasonally, so check before your trip whether the lifts will be running during your visit.

The runs are no more than intermediate in difficulty. This upper limit helps define the terrain, but it doesn’t mean that every run is equally challenging. If your group includes people with varying levels of experience, it’s worth distinguishing the difficulty ratings of the runs from the learning opportunity specifically mentioned for children and beginners. The current tourism classification may be updated, so check it again before you arrive.

Another winter option is two designated ski tours. They differ from the lifts and runs in being touring routes; their availability depends on snow and local conditions. The choice between a run and a tour therefore depends on different criteria: for runs, the difficulty rating matters; for ski tours, local conditions matter. Check conditions accordingly before planning a tour.

Panoramic views and regional cuisine

From Peterhof on Alpe Furx, you can enjoy panoramic views across the entire Rhine Valley. This offers a different focus from the winter sports activities: Furx can also be explored for its scenery. Restaurant Peterhof serves regional cuisine featuring produce from farms in Vorarlberg. The origin of the ingredients gives the menu a clear regional connection. If dining at the restaurant is part of your plans, check before you arrive whether it will be open.

A historical site in Furx

The Chapel of Saints Peter and Paul in Furx was extended in 1728 and restored in 1868. The two dates refer to different events: an extension is a structural addition, while a restoration is a later step in preserving or repairing the building. The chronology separates two stages in its building history. For travellers interested in historic buildings, the chapel offers a specific, dated connection to the place.
