St. Christoph am Arlberg

Pass-top hospice hamlet: snow-sure, quiet, high-end.

St. Christoph is a tiny pass-top hamlet at 1,800 m on the Arlberg pass between St. Anton and Stuben: a single hospice (founded in 1386), a handful of hotels, and a chairlift onto the Galzig sector. Snow reliability is the highest in the area and lodging is high-end-and-quiet rather than partying. Suits skiers who want Arlberg access without St. Anton's noise or Lech's prices.
