Why Ski In St Anton?
St Anton is probably the most popular ski resort in Austria and it’s easy to see why. The Slopes are extensive with 340km of varied terrain for intermediate and advanced skiers alike. The local area is called Arlberg and consists of St Anton itself and the neighbouring areas of Lech, Zurs and St Christoph.
St Anton’s skiing is tough with many runs tougher than you may think for their classification. Valluga at 2810m is the highest point of St Anton’s slopes which is accessed by the Galzig gondola the area below this is linked to the Kappal Gampen area which takes you to the other end of the resort, Nasserein.
The third sector for skiing is Rendl which is underused and underrated – head here and go up on the new gondola when the other slopes are busy and you will find plenty to ski without the crowds.
St Anton is one of the ultimate party towns in Austria – with many famous bars and après ski venues. The town itself is spread along the narrow valley floor and has a pedestrianised centre which adds to the ambience. The town itself is a mix of newer and older style buildings and has a very cosmopolitan atmosphere.
There are local buses that connect easily to the other Arlberg resorts or you can take the train into Innsbruck.
The Nasserein end of town is quieter with an excellent fast lift up to the slopes. It’s a 5-8 min flat walk through the pedestrianised centre to get to the livelier end of town.
Ski Line offer a huge selection of ski chalets and slopeside ski hotels, we also offer limited self-catered apartments.
Eco-Friendly
Since 2006 St Anton in the Austrian Alps produces 33 million Kilowatt hours of electricity a year, that’s enough green energy to supply all the resort’s power needs. This is thanks to the Kartell Reservoir and Rosanna power plant.

The men’s downhill from the top of Kapall-Gampen right down to town is one for your list and the 100m vertical run from Schindler Spitze down to Rauz should also be on the list too.
Easier skiing can be found on the short blue runs over at Galzig and the run from Kappal to Galzig is also good. When the weather comes in head for Rendl where you’ll find a good tree lined blue right down to the valley. It’s well worth taking the bus to the Lech Zurs area where the skiing is more gentle with some great cruisy blue runs.
