In a nutshell
A skiing legend
sourbugger Says: I could be a snow bore at this pint and witter on about how great the skiing is at St Anton, especially run 37 at the top of the Kappel....sorry.Instead, may I just recommend that at any time of the year the trip up to the top of the Valluga mountain is well worth the trip....
the church of Sankt Anton am Arlberg
globetrott Says: The church of St. Anton am Arlberg consists of an old part that dates back to the year 1691 and a new part that was added in 1932 : take a look at my 4th picture : the lower part is the old church and the higher part in front was added in the 20th century. Take a few mintes...

Fuhrmann - Stube: Real Austrian food
TheView Says: If you like me like to taste the traditional cooking of the country you are visiting you might like visit Fuhrmann - Stube. The prices are modest to the normally very overpriced St. Anton and food is basic Austrian and in good size portions. You can not make a reservation...

Piccadilly/Postkeller Bar: After ski I
TheView Says: After skiing is really good in St. Anton we did very soon via. Advise from other tourist in town find that Piccadilly/Postkeller Bar was a good place for it. Every evening there was live music until 20.00 where they close to reopen at 21.30 with a admission of 6 euro. With...
After ski at the slops above town: After ski II
TheView Says: Just a few hundred meters above the town right at slop 21 and 1 you get the choice between no less the tree after ski spots starting from the top there is the Krazy Kanguruh (slop 21), Kaminstube am Moos and lowest Mooserwirt. Mooserwith is the place with the louder music of...
Excellent connections by train
sourbugger Says: St Anton benefits from lying on the main railway line that runs through from Vienna into Switzerland. It therefore recieves a steady stream of international trains including the 'eurocity'.A few years back they spent millions moving the line to the other side of the valley,...
TheView Says: In 2001 St. Anton am Arlberg got a new railway station It is made in a very nice way compared to the relative small community it is places as a part of. Its is to describe it made as a part of mountain wall just opening up to give room for the station in it self where after...
Sankt Anton has it's own train-station
globetrott Says: Sankt Anton am Arlberg has it's own train-station and the station is in the very centre of town, so you dont need to have your own car to get there. On the way to Vorarlberg and Switzerland the train will go inside a series of tunnels. From St. Anton you may continue to...
Intersport Arlberg: Buy or rent?
TheView Says: Ski rental for a week easy runs up in 170 euros you can buy skis for around twice that amount, so if your planning on doing more skiing you might think in advance of buying instead of renting. Tree of my friends did and got a good deal as they did buy together.
TheView Says: I where told by some who have had an apartment in St. Anton for years that the Stuben area should be very good. I did not get this impression myself the first lift (Albona I) did something to it, it was old and I got catapulted of it to a 2-3 meter drop. As a snowboarder...
be aware of the GTI - idiots !
globetrott Says: Be carefull, when driving, overtaking on the pass-road of Arlberg is sometimes quite dangerous and maybe you take a look at the car on my pictures, it was left back at one of the parking-lots on Arlberg. When you are not able to understand the words at the windscreen : It...
globetrott Says: Always check the weather-forecast and the extra signposts along the pass-road : On my main picture you may see one of them and there you can see that all of the 3 side-roads are "green" : that means these roads are open and you can drive there without any danger. These...
TheView Says: If you end up staying a bit out side the centre of the city there runs ski busses this is very cool as they are free! (part of the lifts card) But they only runs until 18.30 after this there is a night bus that runs ones every full hour from St. Anton at a price of 4 euros...
Sunny delight - bring your sunglasses
morgenhund Says: Sunglasses are well recommended if you intend to go up the mountains - the sun on the snow can dazzle you a lot and slowblindness can occur. Sturdy shoes, preferably water and snowproof are adviseable. No real things you should bring - the pharmacies usually have at least...
peaceness98 Says: You need to buy a special jacket and pants for skiing. Alot of them come with several pockets to keep you money and ski pass in.You also need special knee-high socks. These should all be available in sport shops, but you can also find them in Austria when you arrive.Snow...
ZenLady34 Says: Jannewein serves the skiiers in different ways. They rent and sell equipments for you and they rent lockers also. I found the lockers very handy as I could leave my extra bag in there for a day and I also left my shoes in their storage.
hiking in Sankt Anton and St. Christoph
globetrott Says: There are plenty of hiking-paths starting from Sankt Anton and St. Christoph am Arlberg and while hiking is possible any time it might be the best to check the timetable forthe chairlifts on duty during the rather short summer-season between mid of june end early end of...
ZenLady34 Says: St Anton offers plenty of slopes in different "colors". Even if you are a beginner or an expert you will find slopes that you will enjoy. What will make a skiing day even better is to carry with you a map of slopes. Maybe this advise is an "evident" for you but beginners...
St. Anton - 1.754m above the sea-level
globetrott Says: Sankt Anton am Arlberg is 1.754m above the sea-level, a fact that makes sure that most of the wintertime there will be enough snow to go skiing, even when the rest of Tirol might have not enough snow. Many of centuries At. Anton was the only place to go over the Arlberg...
