General info: 

One of the best ski areas of the world is situated in Austria, at the Arlberg at an altitude from 1300 to 2811 metres. The Arblerg is not a mountain but rather a mountain pass of the Alps connecting the federal Austrian states of Tirol and Vorarlberg. Winter athletes will only need one ski pass for the whole skiing area – the Arlberg-Card gives them access to a snow paradise with more than 80 inclines and lifts, 276 kilometres of slopes and 180 kilometres of deep snow runs.
