On the slopes

While any skier will enjoy holidays in St Anton ski resort, it is experts who will really appreciate the Arlberg ski area - this is awesome expert territory, with miles and miles of off-piste, mogul and powder challenges. Still, with over 260 Km of groomed slopes and a great snow record, everyone will find plenty to enjoy, including snowboarders - there is freestyling on the piste with plenty of natural gullies and hits, and a snowboard park at Rendl Beach.

Ski area :

If you ski St Anton you are also in the ski region of Arlberg along with the following resorts; Lech, St Anton, St Christoph, Stuben, Zurs .

Off the slopes

A mix of traditional and modern buildings in St Anton fill this narrow valley, with a choice of chalets or hotels to suit every budget and taste. Once you quit the slopes you'll find plenty of good restaurants and cafes, whether you favour traditional Tyrolean food or more international cuisine. There is also some great shopping, and a superb range of après-ski choices, with bars and clubs aplenty. Popular choices include Bar Cuba, and the Funky Chicken.

RESORT GOOD POINTS

  • Varied terrain for experts and adventurous intermediates - lots of it, once you include Lech-Zürs
  • Heavy snowfalls, backed up by a fair amount of snowmaking
  • Very lively après-ski, from mid-afternoon onward

RESORT BAD POINTS

  • Slopes far from ideal for beginners or timid intermediates
  • Pistes can get very crowded, some of them dangerously so
  • Can get rowdy, with noisy drunks in the central streets in the early hours
