St Anton Ski Holidays

“A world class ski resort, vast ski area and fantastic après-ski”

St. Anton is the jewel of the Ski Arlberg region — Austria’s largest lift-linked ski area — and a must-visit for serious skiers and snowboarders. Known worldwide for its challenging pistes, legendary off-piste terrain, and pulsating après-ski, a skiing holiday to St. Anton promises adventure both on and off the slopes.

With modern lifts connecting Stuben, Zürs, Lech, and Warth-Schröcken, the Ski Arlberg area now offers the largest inter-connected ski region in Austria, all backed by an exceptional snow record.

The resort centre blends Tyrolean tradition with a cosmopolitan vibe, featuring stylish bars, lively cafés, boutique shops, and outstanding restaurants. While St. Anton is a premium destination — with most hotels offering week-long stays and little flexibility — it remains one of the most sought-after ski holiday destinations in Austria for those looking for world-class skiing and vibrant nightlife.

On the Mountain 

Whilst there are some beginner slopes directly above the resort, the area is best suited to strong intermediates and experts who will relish the prospect of tackling St Anton’s steeper terrain and exploring all that the vast Arlberg region has to offer.

With 305 kilometres of pistes to navigate, skiers can fill their days with long circuits including the thigh-busting 85 kilometre ‘Run of Fame’ and the ‘Weisse Ring’ Circuit above Lech-Zurs.

St Anton is a freeride mecca and there are countless off-piste itineraries. These are best tackled with a local guide – they really do add local knowledge, safety and value to your holiday - and are the only way you’ll get to ski off the back of the Valluga, one of Europe’s must-ski off-piste itineraries.

North and west-facing Rendl is a quieter and underrated part of the St Anton area and includes the impressive Stanton Snow Park and Rendl Beach as well as offering good ski touring. The lesser-visited slopes of Stuben and Sonnenkopf are also worth a look.

Off the Mountain 

St Anton’s après-ski is legendary and by mid-afternoon the party crowds are packed in to the slope-side Mooserwirt and Krazy Kanguruh bars just above the resort. It’s a short ski down from there and the resort centre has a huge selection of bars, pubs and clubs rubbing shoulders with restaurants offering everything from tapas, steaks, sushi and Thai to more traditional fare.
 
For a more relaxed evening, head to St Anton’s stylish Wellness centre, Arlberg WellCom, which features an extensive spa area, swimming pools, gym, tennis, relaxation areas and treatment rooms. An indoor climbing centre,  bowling, ice skating and sleigh rides are also available in resort.
