The cosmopolitan resort of St. Anton is firmly established as one of Europe’s top ski resorts, attracting keen skiers from all over the world. The resort at the centre of the Arlberg Ski Circus, has the reputation of being best suited to strong skiers and boarders, but that certainly shouldn't put less aggressive skiers off as there's plenty for them too. Included in the vast Arlberg lift pass are the neighbouring villages of St. Christoph, Lech, Zurs and now Warth. The attractive pedestrianised village gives easy access to the main lifts and the resorts's infamous apres ski kicks off early in the surrounding bars. In addition there are plenty of activities off the piste with excellent restaurants and plenty of shopping opportunities!
