Visitor Reviews of Zurs


david roberts from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Great snow- fanastic runs both on and off piste. Good links to neigbouring resorts of Lech and St Anton, with loads of off piste as well as Fun Parks. A particulary good Fun Park in Lech with Kickers and rails for all abilities. Not much to do in the evenings though - head to Lech or St Anton for that. Expensive, but no more than the bigger French resorts, while the service is much better than any other resort I have ever been to.
