Rent properly fitted ski boots in St Anton. Expert boot fitting from local ski shops ensures comfort and control on the mountain.
St Anton is considered the birthplace of alpine skiing and the world capital of off-piste.
St Anton's reputation for off-piste comes from the Valluga cable car at 2,811m — to ski down to Zürs from the top station, resort regulations require you to be accompanied by a certified mountain guide. The Schindler and Kapall sectors offer long red runs; the Rendl bowl across the valley is quieter and faces north.
Renting ski equipment in St Anton is the smart choice for most visitors. Luggage costs for ski gear can exceed the price of a week-long rental, and local shops offer ski boots rental perfectly tuned for St Anton's terrain — expert level, 305 km of pistes at up to 2811m.
The Mooserwirt on the Galzig descent is statistically the busiest bar in Austria — around 4 million litres of beer sold per season — and afternoon sessions are a full-contact experience with ski boots still on.
Typical daily ski boots rental in St Anton costs €28–€55. Booking a full week package usually saves 15–25% compared to daily rates.
Take the first Vallugabahn up at 8:30 to ski the unmarked Schindlerkar powder bowl — after 11am the bowl fills up and gets completely tracked out within an hour.
