Resort Guide for St Anton, Austria

Resort Profile

St Anton is almost universally rated among the world's top resorts and lies in the middle of the excellent 260km Arlberg Ski Circus comprising neighbouring Lech, Zurs and St Christoph. Despite its big reputation, built as much on its reasonably intensive complement of black standard (though not necessarily marked or graded as such on the piste maps) runs on a great mountain and some of the better off piste skiing around - which has ensured it has become a magnet for a cosmopolitan mix of dedicated Antipodean and European skiers - it retains a core village atmosphere. It is home to the Arlberg Ski Shool - one of the most prestigous ski schools in the Alps, which rather rested on its pre-sixties reputation for popularising the 'feet together' Arlberg technique, but is much improved in the last five years. Here also Sir Arnold Lunn established the first Arlberg Kandahar race her in 1928. The choice of nightlife is broad and it is vibrant and fun; on the mountain there is an excellent choice of mountain restaurants. Much of the famed advanced skiing is off-piste, starting from the Valluga mountian sector which is known the world over, and local qualified guides will ensure optimum routes and enjoyment in safety. It is not a resort for shaky intermediates nor beginners.
