The slopes
Beginners
The St. Anton beginners' slopes are just above the village towards Nasserein and are ideal for building your confidence.
Intermediates
The Galzig and Gampen areas, directly behind St. Anton, are the best starting points for intermediates. They offer a superb range of blue and red runs to get your skiing legs into gear. Move across to the Rendl area on the sunny side of the valley and there are plenty of challenges to be found or, for more forgiving terrain, the long cruising runs of the Valluga are not to be missed.
Advanced
St. Anton is an experienced skier's paradise, with countless challenges on and off-piste - tricky black runs, steep narrow gullies, bump runs and fantastic off-piste trails. The high mountain runs from the Valluga are particularly fearsome, and the Mattun, Schindlerkar and Stuben runs are definite highlights.
Snowboarding
St Anton is regarded as having the best snowboarding terrain in Austria and is fully behind the sport. It has miles of excellent terrain for all levels. For freeriding it is the perfect playground - check out the Kapall and Valluga. For freestylers the place is littered with natural gullies and hits, there's also a snowboard park at Rendl Beach.
