St. Anton am Arlberg ski resort hotel accommodation and map — Austria

Tourism on the Arlberg dates back to the 19th century. But it was not until the advent of Alpine skiing, pioneered to a large extent by men from the Arlberg, that the region acquired the outstanding reputation it still enjoys today as a winter sports centre. St. Anton am Arlberg is a truly unique recreation paradise for the whole family. The cozy little town with 2,500 inhabitants has still maintained its genuine ambiance and charming atmosphere. Relax and unwind at the elevation of 1,300m where crisp and clean mountain air is guaranteed! Experience genuine Tirolean hospitality and spend the most beautiful days of the year among friends.

It’s been more than a century coming, but the new Rendl gondola lift at St Anton has finally united two of St Anton’s ski areas, so that visitors no longer need to walk or take a bus between the two main ski areas. “The new Rendl Lift marks a small revolution in St Anton’s winter sports offering.” Said a resort spokesperson. “The Galzig and Kapall ski areas now have friendly competition thanks to the more centrally located Rendl base station.

Winter 2009–10 is just around the corner for Austria’s Arlberg region, and it’s an especially exciting one for St Anton, as it’s ‘second’ ski area, Rendl, moves closer to the village centre – or at least a new lift makes access from the centre and from the main ski area much easier.

The new construction of the Rendl Lift marks a small revolution in St Anton’s winter sports offerings. The Galzig and other areas now have some friendly competition thanks to the more centrally located Rendl base station.
