St. Anton am Arlberg is located 1 304 meters above sea level, just at the foot of the Arlberg massif. The village has a mere 2 300 inhabitants and is characterized by a combination of international flair and a genuine Austrian Tyrolean culture.

ST. ANTON CLAIMS TO BE the birthplace of skiing, and the Alps’ first ski club was formed here in 1901. Today, St. Anton is a paradise for mountain lovers with its 260 kilometers of groomed trails, 82 ski lifts and unlimited possibilities for back country skiing and ski touring. Due to St. Anton’s high altitude location, the resort is regarded as one of the most snow reliable ski areas in the Alps, something that attracts thousands of enthusiasts every winter.

Regardless of your preference, St. Anton has something for everybody; if you want to ski steep north faces or cruise endlessly on groomed trails, hit the pipe in Rendl’s snowboard park or relax in the sun with jägertee and knödel. You can telemark in Stuben’s powder or lay the first track down the slopes you previously hiked, ski Schindler’s moguls or warm up with a glühwein and live music at the pub. During spring, as the weather gets warmer, the area is ideal for mountain biking, rafting, parapenting, trekking and climbing.

IN THE HEART OF THE TYROL there is far more to entertain you than just mountain activities. Stroll around in the village and enjoy the magnificent views, enjoy an espresso and apfelstrudel on a sunny terrace, relax with a beer at the pool table, or try the local specialties in one of the many restaurants around the village. Swim in the heated outdoor pool, race your buddies down the bobsleigh track or try Kegel, the Austrian equivalent to bowling.

When darkness falls, the many bars and clubs fling their doors open and live bands and DJs guarantee an intense nightly experience seven days a week.

THE TEACHING TAKES PLACE in the newly built, top modern Zielstadion in the Arlberg Well.com-centre. The centre is located next to the slopes in the heart of St. Anton and was opened during The Ski World Championships in 2001. Apart from class rooms, the study centre contains a fitness centre, in- and outdoor pool, sauna, ice-skating rink and restaurant.
