Hiking

St Anton has published a thorough Hiking Guide on their site complete with maps, detailed descriptions and more. There are 49 different routes, ranging from a one-hour leg stretch to a ten-hour alpine trek. The interactive map provides a great overview, so that you can compare routes and select your ideal hike.

The Arlberg area is famous for its stunning and varied wildflowers, including 25 types of orchid. There are a range of alpine ‘flower walks’ on offer; routes especially designed to allow you to witness the flora up close.

As well as more challenging hikes, there are some great walks for families, for example in the beautiful Verwall valley. The walk to the lake incorporates four ‘story points’, where children can learn about local myths and legends, and when you reach the lake you’ll find a wonderful play area.

Climbing

In the Verwall valley, beginner climbers can explore the high and low rope courses. A variety of climbing challenges weave their way through the treetops and offer the thrill of climbing in a totally safe and fun environment. Even children under 8 can tackle the lower courses with supervision.

For those who seek something a little more adventurous, the 3km long via ferrata is said to be one of the most challenging in the Alps. Crossing precarious ledges and steep rock faces, it’ll take anywhere between 4-6 hours, but you’ll be rewarded with stunning panoramas. Less experienced climbers can hire a guide who will assist you in navigating the route, which can be reached from the Vallugagrat cable car station.

On bad weather days, arl.rock is an excellent sports and rock climbing centre. Get some practice on the large indoor climbing wall, try a new boulder problem, or make use of the tennis, squash, basketball, volleyball, or badminton courts. If all that activity has you peckish, there is an Asian restaurant within the centre.

And so much more
