Choose the right terrain
A confident skier’s circuit is not a lesson plan. Start with suitable open pistes, book instruction when needed and check the return connections before crossing into another sector.

St. Anton Ski & Après
I like Austria most when the trip moves between distinct experiences: Vienna’s ceremonial winter glow, Salzburg’s historic lanes, and Tyrol’s mountain culture. Rail keeps the cities and resort gateways connected, while local lifts and shuttles make the ski days feel focused rather than like one long road trip.

Austria · Make the plan fit your dates
Settle into St. Anton.
Five saved days include arrival, departure and three main mountain days, with four nights at Himmlhof. Galzig, Rendl and the high-mountain options need different decisions about ability, weather and time.
Keep the high-mountain day flexible
The saved “Valluga Summit and Run of Fame” is a choice between outings. The full Run of Fame can take more than one day at a relaxed pace. A Valluga II descent with ski equipment requires a qualified guide; it is not an ordinary marked-piste return.
Read the Valluga restriction ↗2026/27 season and pass boundaries
St. Anton / core Ski Arlberg plans 2 December 2026–18 April 2027. Open terrain and connections depend on the day’s conditions. Rendl is a separate lift base within the Ski Arlberg area.
Arrive at St. Anton am Arlberg station, then confirm the walk or pickup to your hotel with luggage. Après-ski is optional: finish the skiing first and choose a safe return to the village. Compare the ski bases →
Choose your après-ski pace
Ski Arlberg’s official après-ski guide lists MooserWirt and Krazy Kanguruh for the party scene, Sennhütte for a hut stop and Hospiz Alm in St. Christoph for mountain dining. These are optional outings, not reserved or included stops. Confirm current opening and your route back; finish skiing before drinking and arrange a safe return.
