Five days on the Arlberg's biggest freeride terrain around St. Anton — steep faces, couloirs and the legendary Valluga.

The Arlberg on a storm cycle is one of the best freeride arenas in the Alps. We chase the snow, find the sheltered stashes and ride the classics with local knowledge.
Schindler, Kapall and the classic St. Anton off-piste, lift-accessed.
The iconic guide-only line off the very top, conditions permitting.
Sheltered lines that stay good after the fronts pass through.
Sample itinerary — every day is chosen from the conditions, so the order flexes with the weather.
Transfer from Innsbruck, gear check and evening briefing.
Warm up and ride the classic lift-accessed faces and bowls.
Weather-dependent bigger objectives with your guide.
Final laps chasing the best snow, then transfer.
Comfortable, well-located lodging close to the lifts and the backcountry access. (Hotels are placeholders — swap for your real partners.)
Central 3–4★ hotel, walking distance to the lifts and après.
A cosy pension a little outside the centre.
Self-catered apartment for private groups.
Mostly lift-accessed with short bootpacks. The biggest lines need a little hiking.
St. Anton is proper freeride terrain — you should be confident off-piste in variable snow.
February for the deepest, most reliable snow and storm cycles.
