St. Anton am Arlberg — Your Gateway to the Alps
St. Anton am Arlberg sits at 1,304m in the Austrian Tyrol, at the western end of the Inn Valley. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest ski destinations in the world — birthplace of alpine skiing, home of the Arlberg technique and host of the annual Hahnenkamm-equivalent races on the Valluga and Galzig. In summer it transforms into a premier hiking and cycling destination, with the Arlbergsommerkarte unlocking over 300km of marked trails.
Getting to St. Anton from the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and across Europe has never been easier. Innsbruck Airport connects the resort to more than 20 direct routes in the winter season alone, with London Gatwick alone served by four different airlines. The ski bus in St. Anton runs every 15 minutes — meaning you can fly in, transfer directly to the village and be on the slopes within hours of landing.
Hotel Die Arlbergerin and Pension Der Steinbock sit in the heart of the village, 700 metres from the main Galzigbahn ski lift. Guests booking direct save 15% and receive priority room selection, flexible cancellation and personal service from Barbara and the team.
