Excellent menus and romance
Those who rent accommodation in St. Anton am Arlberg can taste the special culinary delights. Austrian and international specialties can be found at the Planger delicatessen house on Dorfstraße. Here you can also buy fine wines. Also on Dorfstraße is the Sonnbichl, where you can get original Tyrolean dishes and Italian cuisine. If you want to try the delicious Kaiserschmarrn, Alber's Rodel-Alm is one of the places to go. The burgers are also recommended here. As the name suggests, you can also whiz down a toboggan run here. At the Museum Restaurant, you will not only learn more about the history of skiing, but will also enjoy excellent gourmet menus in a beautiful villa. The wine list is also more than impressive. You can book a romantic candlelight dinner at the Verwallstube. The restaurant, which promises a magical view of the landscape and the mountains, is a place for connoisseurs. The dishes from the gourmet kitchen are always freshly prepared with traditional ingredients. If you want, you can recreate the traditional dishes in your vacation accommodation.
Best slope conditions at Arlberg
St. Anton am Arlberg in
Tyrol is considered an Eldorado for winter sports enthusiasts. The ski area is suitable for all ages. You can, for example, be transported directly to the ski area with the Galzigbahn. The Vallugabahn takes you further up to the 2,650-meter high peak. The vacation region is famous for its above-average slope length and the snow depth of an average of 163 centimeters on the mountain. The Antoniusweg above the village, which leads to the Stockibach waterfall, is also family-friendly. The view from the Stockibach - Stockiquelle viewpoint is impressive. A visit to the high ropes course in the Verwalltal on the banks of the Rosanna is also worth the trip. Also recommended in combination with a vacation home or apartment and often allowed: a
holiday with a dog in the Tyrolean Oberland.
Panoramas galore
In summer, we recommend unique hikes that can start right outside the door of your apartment or vacation home in a prime location. For example, the Alpenrosenweg starts at the mountain station of the Rendlbahn. It offers you a magnificent view of the Lechtaler Alps and the Stanzer Tal. The Berggeistweg St. Christoph, which leads to the Kaltenberghütte, already located in
Vorarlberg, promises dreamlike paths and insights into nature. An idyllic mountain lake awaits you near the hut. You can immerse yourself in the fascinating world of skiing at the Ski and Heimatmuseum, which is housed in the Trier-Haus. The exhibition also provides insights into road and railway construction. Without a doubt, one of the most significant highlights is the Vallugaspitze, with its unique panoramic view from the summit. Not only for skiing and hiking. There are many opportunities for climbing, biking, tobogganing, and more - always with a fantastic panorama. You will experience impressive nature in the Schnanner Klamm, where a secured path leads along fascinating rock walls next to a roaring torrent and waterfalls. The neighboring village of Pettneu is also worth a visit. Pettneu is located on a river with the floral name Rosanna and is a good starting point for sunny hikes. The village of Flirsch, at 1,157 meters, nestles into the western Hochalpen in the Stanzertal and can also be visited by skiers. You can also visit the places Nasserein (there is a cable car), Schnann, or the Lech Valley. The Lech Valley is perfect for ski vacations and is a great ski area. In the evening, there is mulled wine and Kaiserschmarrn at the ski hut. Alpine life in this holiday region is simply a dream for your journey!
