Forecast today: Clear skies
A fast quad takes skiers and boarders to Galzig, right at the heart of the St Anton ski area and with blues back into resort at the end of the day, this is one of the more gentle parts of the ski area famed for its extensive off piste and steep terrain. It is also very quick to get across to Lech and Zürs via the Ahlenmähder chair and the Flexenbahn gondola.
The resort itself is barely more than a hamlet home to a handful of hotels, including one of the Alps’ best hotels, the Arlberg Hospiz. Prices are high, but with that you get incredible facilities, a world-class restaurant and real old-school Austrian luxury. Getting here is simple, either drive from Innsbruck airport or catch the train to St Anton – the former takes around 75 minutes, with the latter a little longer.

The last of the excellent snowfall tails off on Christmas eve, before things settle down across the region for the remainder of this week. High pressure dominates throughout, meaning fine, dry and bright conditions are in store for Christmas Day and right the way through to the end of the weekend. A few pockets of cloud and floccons of snow move in to the east of the region on Friday and Saturday, but these won’t make too much of a dent on the snowstick.
Temperatures will be cool, with a freezing line hovering around 1,000m overnight and spiking up to 2,000m during the midday sun – that means highs of 1-3°C can be expected at 1,500m.
Otherwise, things are holding steady with some excellent skiing conditions coming up.
The Ski Club office is closed on Friday 28 December – there will be no overviews published on this date, returning Tuesday 31 December. The Ski Club wishes you a Merry Christmas!
