Snow fox, scooter, ski biking & snow blading in Tyrol

If you are an experienced skieror snowboarder, perhaps you'd like to try something new on your winter holiday in Tyrol? If so, St. Anton am Arlberg is just the place! Cool, trendy winter sports have been enjoying great popularity here for several years, guaranteeing you an exciting adventure in the snow.

Try out winter sports in the Arlberg region

The Arlberg ski region is a popular destination for skiing and snowboarding fans, as well as ski tourers, but the area also caters for numerous other winter sports. Why not try the snow blades, which look like slender, shortened and fitted carving skis. 360-degree turns and travelling in reverse are not just allowed, they are encouraged as a great fun option when blading on the slopes. The snow scooters (a combination of scooter and snowboard) let you fly across the snow while standing, while the snow fox carries a seated passenger. Instead of a bicycle, the snow bike is a sporting machine comprising two skis in tandem, on which you can speed down the mountain. Biking in the snow is an easy skill to master, and a great option for non-skiers as well as experienced snow athletes.

The highlight of your winter holiday in St. Anton: heli-skiing on the Arlberg

A special highlight for your winter on the Arlberg is a heli-skiing experience. The Arlberg is the only place in Austria where you can try this sport. The helicopter enables you to enjoy a long and quite indescribable deep-snow descent without the need for an exhausting ski-touring climb. You also have the opportunity to set off from places that you would not be able to reach by any other means. All parties must be accompanied by a ski guide with plenty of heli-skiing experience.
