Likelihood of triggering
Triggering is possible, even from low additional loads, particularly on the indicated steep slopes (steeper than about 30 degrees). In certain situations some large, and in isolated cases very large natural avalanches are possible.

The longest continuous ski circuit in the Alps!

In the footsteps of ski pioneers and stars.
With the new Flexenbahn, which opened in the 2016/17 season, an impressive ski circuit has emerged, dedicated to the ski stars of the Arlberg. The “Run of Fame” offers not only 85 kilometres of ski runs but also an incredible 18,000 metres of elevation gain, taking your skiing enjoyment to a new level. This well-marked ski circuit leads winter sports enthusiasts from Warth-Schröcken, starting at the Dorfbahn Warth, over the Arlberg to St. Anton, showcasing the full beauty of the interconnected ski area – from Warth in the north via Saloberkopf to Lech Zürs, and then back to St. Anton/Rendl in the south.
Average winter sports enthusiasts will need a full day to complete the Run of Fame. Entry is possible from almost any point in the ski area. Simply follow the Run of Fame symbols on the piste signage. A handy folder with further information is available at the ski lifts and many tourist offices.
Important Note: The last operational ride of the Auenfeldjet is at 4:00 PM. After this time, it is no longer possible to return on skis!
