St Anton - Useful Information

Below is an outline of practical information to take with you on your ski holiday. From transport to lift passes, this useful information is well worth taking with you as it could make your life slightly easier when arriving in St Anton.  

Lifts

With skiing up to an altitude of over 2800m, 280km of pistes, and 3 weather fronts bringing an avergae annual snowfall of over 7m; St Anton is one of the most snow-sure resorts in Europe.  This means the ski lifts are open from early December right through to late April every year, although if the snow is good you can get an early lift pass in November or a late one in May.

 

Buses

Everyone with a valid lift pass can use the great bus system for free.  The main bus station is at the bottom of the Galzig and Rendle Bubble lifts and the main routes go in the direction of St Christoph and St Jacob, so whhichever end of town you're staying in you can catch a bus.

Between 8am - 10pm the buses run every 10 minutes

Between 10pm - 3am they run every hour

 

Parking

St Anton has a strictly pedestrianised town centre, so it really is advisable to walk around the resort and take the free buses as much as possible.  However, there are a couple of car parks to use. If you want a space for the week you can park in the recommended covered car park,Klaus Eiter, which is approximately €70 for the week.
