The Skiers' Guide to St. Anton am Arlberg

Big resort with plenty of runs for all abilities.

The apres bars were far too busy and everyone had to pile into a few different spots.

Amazing ski resort one the best I’ve visited over the past 30 years. Apres is hands down the best I’ve experienced and the skiing is amazing if you head over to lech and Zurs.

Not for beginners but a fabulous resort for a large ski area and apres ski. Large variety of activities, restaurants and accommodation options

Nice resort, the grades of runs are fair (ie in Italy the blacks were only red), fairly well connected to get to Lech, lovely mountain restaurants, St Anton has lots of life & shops, ski hire has been great.

The ski area is huge with a great variety of difficulty the run from the highest point down to st cristoph is possibly my favourite run, just be aware of the home run as it bottlenecks as you head down, if you get the chance to travel to the close by resort of Lech and Zurs they are amazing too.

Really enjoyed my holiday in St Anton. Apres-Ski is brilliant. Resort is also very family friendly and has lots of facilities for both adults and children. The snow coverage wasn’t brilliant overall, but the resort was very quiet and had a large range of slopes available.

The best resort for all round in my opinion. The apres ski is unmatched and it’s one of the only places the nightlife caters to all group sizes e.g. you don’t feel you need to be in a huge group to enjoy.

Really decent resort to visit in March. Premium prices compared to some other options but overall worth it. Most of the group travelled easily from Basel, CH, and one joined from the UK, flying to ZRH.

Epic apres known worldwide. Slopes for everyone, but always busy. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for!

St Anton is one of the best resorts around. A huge ski area to use, especially with the option to now get lifts directly to the Lech area. There really are endless ski opportunities.

The town is great with lots to do and lots of nightlife.

Apres in St Anton is obviously legendary and so much fun.

Can’t fault anything about St Anton it’s the best place in the world!

I've been to St Anton a few times now. The skiing is hard but it'll make you better. I love it. This winter will be my 4th time.

Great resort for anyone slightly above beginner level, fantastic skiing and apres, just hard to coach a beginner through the narrow runs that are quite technical once cut up later in the day

Very busy on the slopes, icy in some parts. good bars on the mountain and in the village. Overall not my favourite place to ski.

St Anton is great - super fun for a group of friends, great vibes and great snow! We had a large group of us and were always well accomodated.

St Anton is an amazing ski area stretching to Warth, Lech and Zurs. It has some great couloirs as well as off piste areas. The Austrian apres is unmatched and the town has a great traditional Austrian vibe. Great place for a holiday or an entire season!

St Anton is a good resort to test your ability . The runs are testing it attracts good standard of skiers. It is very cosmopolitan with its visitors . The lifts are efficient well maintained and run smoothly . The ski schools are good as well as the guides a great place to improve on your technique on and off piste . I would highly recommend this resort if you want to up your game , The saying people think there can ski until coming to St Anton . The mountain restaurants are great with good food and atmosphere. The Apres is on another level .

Area suitable for intermediate to advanced skiers, not so much for others unless stick to Lech area. Great variety of skiing, mountain restaurants & good apres ski. Relatively expensive accommodation, but not so for food & drinks.

St. Anton is a world famous resort but maybe to its own detriment. When we were there in March, the resort was very busy (accidentally timed with Belgium school holidays although it is difficult to avoid holidays from all European countries) There are bottlenecks to get up and out the town and getting going for the day felt like a very slow process with waits of 20 - 30 mins in many of the first few lifts. Vast ski area so you can eventually get away from the crowds and explore the huge amount of terrain. Unfortunately when we were there it was 8-10 degrees celsius up the mountain so we were unable to test out the freeride opportunities which it is famous for. Fun to check out the different areas from Lech-Zurs to Warth. We didn't find it as easy to navgate as some of the other big ski areas such as Tignes / Val d'isere.

The town itself has a good vibe with lots of accommodation options and a varied choice of restaurants. Lots of options for après too from quieter spots to rowdier party places like KK and Mooserwirt. Not a hidden gem but I would give it another go during a quiet time of the season and after a powder dump!

Stayed 9 nights skied 5 days and had a fantastic time. Endless terrain, mountain tops, runs, options, foods, drinks and fun! Was with friends for this trip, but lots of families and very family friendly.

Probably not a resort to learn if you have not skied before but a vast ski area for all other abilities. The area attracts all types from ski bums to royalty with prices to match. The majority of restaurants have a great traditional atmosphere with friendly staff.
