Why St. Anton am Arlberg is Highly Rated for Après-Ski

St. Anton am Arlberg's legendary après-ski scene has rightfully earned it the gold award for Best Ski Resorts for Après-Ski - Europe 2025 with a 4.78/5.00 rating. The resort's on-mountain bars create an unrivalled party atmosphere that begins while you're still in your ski boots. The iconic Mooserwirt and Krazy Kangaroo bars on the slopes are consistently mentioned by Snomad users as must-visit destinations. Nicholas, an advanced skier, notes that "the apres ski is lively and fun," while Neil describes it as simply "bangin - amazing fun in Krazy Kangaruh." These famous mountainside venues transform from casual lunch spots to pulsing parties by mid-afternoon, with many skiers dancing on tables to Euro classics before attempting the final run down to town.

The après energy flows seamlessly from mountain to village, where the nightlife and social scene continue well into the evening. Shane, an expert skier, recommends a full après itinerary: "Après start at AlmOne - KK - Mooserwirt & Base Camp in the village... If there's still any gas left in the tank - hit BOBOS from 22:00 for some additional carnage." Cal, an intermediate skier, suggests hitting "Bar Cuba for a love juice" and "Taps" for great entertainment. The resort strikes a perfect balance for various preferences – Jane, an advanced snowboarder, describes it as "one of the friendliest and most fun ski resorts" where she's "made friends with the locals" during annual visits. One Snomad community member, Catherine, sums it up perfectly: "The apres is the best I've seen," confirming why St. Anton consistently sets the standard for Alpine après-ski culture.
