Hiking in St Anton is sure to be an unforgettable experience. During this time, the St Anton ski resort transforms itself into a beautiful sunny place to climb mountains, marvel at local flora and fauna and cover its some 3000 kilometres of paths, which have been awarded the Tyrolean Wandergütesiegel or walker’s quality seal as it is known in English. You’ll fill your lungs with clean mountain air, see spectacular mountain flowers, and maybe stop for a bite of the local cuisine at one of the many great restaurants and cafes along the way. What’s more, if you choose your walks right, you’ll hardly see a soul and you can revel in the beauty of solitude at least for a while.
This sports park is the perfect place for skiers to retreat when their St Anton holiday experiences bad weather, but it can also be a fun place to visit in the summer due to its indoor climbing and bouldering walls, squash and tennis courts and bowling alley, which all make for a fun-filled and active family day.

With over 3,800 kilometres of mountain bike tracks to explore and even more stunning scenery than that, it’s the perfect way to spend a day or three, just remember to pack a picnic and stop often to enjoy the mountain delights.
