Endless slopes, untracked powder snow – experience the Austrian mountains off the beaten track with a guided snowboard tour or take to one of the many fun parks.
1. St. Anton, Tirol
St. Anton in Tirol is a winter classic: Sometimes dubbed the „cradle of Alpine skiing“, snowboarders are just as welcome on its slopes. You’ll find great powder runs here, and STANTON Freestyle Park with its kickers, rails, and boxes of varying difficulty levels has established itself as true freestyle highlight in the past years. It’s easily accessible via two lifts, and if you need a break, the Rendl terrace with its bars and restaurants provides great views over the entire park.
