st anton ski resort
Location: 6580 St Anton am Arlberg - Tyrol - Austria
St Anton is located on the Tyrol side of the Arlberg pass, which separates the Tyrol and the Vorarlberg. The Arlberg tunnel, under the surrounding mountain ranges, ensures all-weather access in either direction.
On the old Arlberg road, two further resorts lie hidden in the winter snows - the exclusive high-altitude hamlet of St Christoph with its ski training centre and top-class accommodation, just before the Arlberg pass. And, at the base of the other side of the pass, the tiny village of Stuben, with its charming hotels and guesthouses and the birthplace of Hannes Schneider.
All three are connected by ski runs, lifts and a comprehensive ski bus system. The Arlberg pass also includes the resorts of Lech and Zürs (over the Flexen pass) on the ticket.
St Anton has a good range of hotels, guesthouses, apartments and chalets.
Most are located in the main village at the foot of the slopes or in the suburb
of Nasserein.

of the resort and has been replaced by a pedestrian area.

information about Travel to St Anton am Arlberg
The St Anton ski area can be accessed from a selection of lifts
which leave in all directions from the centre of the town and the suburb of
Nasserein. The Galzig, Gampen and Rendl areas are all served by cable cars
or gondolas. Parking in the resort can be expensive and problematic - day-trippers
are probably best using one of the big car parks located at the entrance to
the resort.
