About

St. Anton am Arlberg is a world‑renowned ski resort nestled in the Tyrolean Alps of Austria. The valley boasts an impressive 94 lifts and 340 km (210 mi) of groomed pistes that cater to skiers of all levels, from beginner blue runs to expert black trails. Over 200 km (120 mi) are available for deep‑snow off‑piste adventures, and the resort’s unique Funitel gondola on the Galzigbahn even features a rotating Ferris wheel, a first in the world. Beyond the slopes, St. Anton is famed for its vibrant après‑ski scene—15 cafés, 8 ice bars and several nightclubs keep the energy high into the night. The town itself is a pedestrian‑friendly hub with historic architecture and plenty of mountain restaurants. The ski museum and the annual Mountain Snow Festival further enrich the cultural experience. Opening from early December to late April, the resort offers the best snow conditions during Austria’s winter season, and winter sports enthusiasts can enjoy world‑class terrain, reliable lift capacity of 151,000 skiers per hour, and a comprehensive lift pass that covers the entire Arlberg area, including neighboring villages.
