 Poster: A snowHead
|
Looking for Some Info on Stuben.
Would it be a good Base for the Arlberg Region and how long does it take to get to St Anton in a taxi from Stuben.
We are a mixed group of Skiers and Boarder.

When we've been to the Arlberg with my missus from her parents (who live in southern Germany close to the Austrian border) we've parked up and started out from Stuben. I was told this was because it had good access both for driving in and for access to the best skiing. It's only a small town though. There is a ski bus between all the parts of the Arlberg, though the best skiing I did was from Stuben.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Stuben is just over the Arlberg pass from St Anton, I would guess it is about 20 minutes in a taxi. There are also regular Post buses.
The areas are linked, so you can ski to St Anton too of course. It is also pretty close to Zuers and Lech, but you can't ski there (well, technically you can but it's pretty serious off piste from the top of Valuga and you can't ski back).
It's a pretty good base for exploring the region, and Stuben itself is renowned for having the best snow in the area. The only downside (and it may not matter to you) is that there's not a lot going on in Stuben, it's a very quiet little village. It is a bit of a trek to get to the big runs on the Valuga, but then again if you are in St Anton it would be a bit of a trek to get to the slopes in Stuben...

Chick, Great place to base yourself, you are ahead of the crowds to Albona which is one of the best placed in Arlberg, totally accessible and a great run home down Schindler to Alpe Rauz/ Stuben - tip........take a head torch, if like us you get last run home it can get a bit dark down the valley from the tunnel at Rauz!! Highly recommended, some good little bars including Willis Pilstube, enjoy!
