| About The Resort.. |
|
 |
|
|
The town of St Anton has about 2500 residences and is still full of Austrian hospitality and Tirolean Charm. It sits at the foot of the Arlberg pass and if you keep on heading up the road you will reach St Christoph and over the pass to Stuben.
It's a great town for Apres ski which goes on until quite late so if you do want a bit of peace and quiet you could always book accommodation at the Nasserein end where you can head up to the slopes on a gondola each day. If you want to sample the nightlife hop on one of the resort busses.
