At this time the little village at 1300 metres altitude was far from being one of the most popular winter sports locations in the world. The hard day-to-day life of mining is what characterised people’s lives at the time.

A leap forward in time – 130 years later
These days St. Anton am Arlberg is an international holiday region. Around 1000 hotels, guesthouses and holiday apartments, innovative guest service, a gondola with Ferris wheel, spa centre, multifunctional sports centre, gourmet cuisine, an excellent place for hiking and cycling in summer and also for a variety of events, provide the ingredients for a successful holiday. It can be seen time and again that those in charge of the tourist sector in St. Anton have succeeded in combining the many years of tradition and history, and meeting the needs of what is required of an international ski destination.
