 Poster: A snowHead

Hi all,
Can I just say how helpful I find this site, it's great!
I have a couple of St. Anton related questions.
1) Can anyone recommend a ski guide or ski school we can book a guide through? Three of us would like to hire a guide for some off piste skiing for a day or two. We're all pretty experienced skiers but none of us have ever been to St. Anton before. Does anyone know roughly what we should be paying, I’ve had a look on the internet and there seems to be some variation.
2) Can anyone recommend any 'must do' places for lunch? I’m open to any ideas.
Thanks.

bagfry, Hospiz Alm in St. Christophe is very good. Push the boat out at goldener Berg in Lech if you fancy setting fire to your credit card.

Not sure about "must do", but these are nice:
Hospitzl Alm at St Christophe
Rodel Alm.
Griabli (op. Mooserwirt)
The question of guides has been done to death on the other thread(s) as indicated by previous answers... should be plenty of info there already I think

The Mooserwirt lunches are excellent too, before the apres starts. Quite expensive, but works out as good value when you see the size of the meals!! Hospiz Alm as above is also a must.

+1 for the Rodel Alm. Great for lunch, and is a "must do" place on Tuesday or Thursday night. Take a sledge down the track and stop halfway for some grostl. Great fun.

scooby_simon, When were you last in berghaus stuben? New owners last year and not as good as previously in my opinion. Don't know if they've changed things around this year?

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

It certainly seems to have lost it's legend reputation, but it was OK last season when I popped in. It's not a bad place, just not as good as it used to be perhaps?

sah, Maybe simon doesn't have a scooby? Only kidding scooby_simon,

You know it makes sense.

Hospiz Alm has been recommended by mates, so I think I'll definitely try it.
In so far as setting my credit card on fire goes, I hoping upon hope that after a week in Zermatt this will look slightly more modest! Zermatt is fantasic but boy can they charge!
Arlberg guides seem to have a guide for a reasonable rate, so I think we'll probably end up with them, unless people thing that's crazy! Thanks again

I know they don't give the private rate but a couple of years ago it was a bit less than the singles rate for 5 people.

This was our "light" lunch at the Rodel Hutte on the Saturday at the end of half term week. It was excellent and about 30 euros I think.

Thought the Berghaus Stuben was good this year. A fairly young crew running it. Liked the food, esp the grostl, and the prices.

We walked past the Berg this year and went to the "Hotel Post"; Excellent; probs better than the old berg; a couple in our group had the house salads and they were excellent! the Post is the new Berg......
The food in the Galzig lift station was also very good; cooked to order pizza and burgers; not quite "old school" lunching but excellent value for those days when you do not want a 60-90 minute lunch..

Goldener Berg isn't that dear for food is it? We lunched there a couple of years ago, seemed ok. Staying there on the other hand.................
