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

St. Anton am Arlberg has rightfully claimed the gold award for the Best Ski Resorts for Après-Ski in the world 2025, scoring an impressive 4.78/5.00 in our community ratings. This legendary Austrian resort has cultivated a reputation for its electrifying on-mountain party atmosphere that begins while you're still in your ski boots. The piste-side bars are the heart of St. Anton's après scene, with many Snomad users highlighting the iconic Mooserwirt and Krazy Kangaruh (often affectionately called "KK") as must-visit destinations. According to Neil, an intermediate skier, "St Anton apres is bangin - amazing fun in Krazy Kangaruh," while Shane, an expert skier, recommends the perfect après route: "Après start at AlmOne - KK - Mooserwirt & Base Camp in the village." The social atmosphere at these slope-side venues is unmatched, with Shane adding that if you still have energy after that, "hit BOBOS from 22:00 for some additional carnage."

The party doesn't end when you leave the slopes – St. Anton's nightlife continues well into the evening throughout the town. One Snomad community member, Cal, recommends "Goulash at base camp and party at Taps" for a complete après experience. The entertainment options are diverse, with everything from traditional Austrian drinking songs to live music sessions. As Jane, an advanced snowboarder, suggests, a "late night music session in Anthonys" is a must-do. Simon, an expert snowboarder, summed it up perfectly: "A great resort that is the best in the world for Apres." The vibrant party atmosphere has become part of the resort's identity, with Rose describing how "The après-ski lived up to the hype," and Sam, an intermediate snowboarder, emphasizing why they always return to St. Anton: "Delivers on every front, but excels itself at Apres. Just the best resort bar none!"
