More Details:
When non-skiers think of Austria, Mozart and pastries might come to mind. But ask any skier what is the first thing that comes to mind when they think of Austria…POWDER! And lots of it! Austria is a pipe dream destination for most North American skiers. Alpine chalets among vast fields of powder, cozy mountain restaurants serving up the best of Alpine cuisine, fluffy down comforters to wrap your weary body in and seemingly endless runs where every bend and dip reveals another mind blowing view. Spend a week living the dream and squeeze every ounce of elation out of the experience as NASTC guides and instructors lead you through this Tyrolean wonderland. This Tyrolean village in the heart of the Austrian Alps knows how to win over skiers. Its a big change from your typical U.S. resort experience. Envision leaving your own track in fresh powder as you descend from up high on the mountain into one of the neighboring villages. At day’s end decompress and warm up with a cup of the richest hot cocoa you’ve ever had or a glass of traditional gluhwein (mulled wine) at one of St Anton’s many vibrant apres ski spots that range from warming huttes on the side of the run to bustling bars and fancy cafes down in the village center. After taking your boots off, head for the spa and enjoy the sauna or thermal shower, stretch and soothe your body in the heated indoor swimming pool and hot tubs. Dinner is an elegant and civilized affair, a celebration of food with a range of Tyrolean cuisine and international influences. When you’re ready to call it a night, head upstairs to your cozy room, wrap up in the fluffy down comforters, stare at the beautiful winter scene outside your windows, and drift off to sleep.
After a hearty traditional breakfast with selections that include locally cured salami, fresh bread, eggs, cereal, and yogurt you are energized and ready for another full day of skiing that includes an itinerary of challenging exercises, one-on-one coaching, situational skiing and an off-piste adventure. Take your mid-day break at one of the slope side chalets and refuel with a delicious bowl of spaghetti bolognaise, goulash or the European skier’s favorite bratwurst and fries. Continue on with the rest of the day and your Austrian alpine adventure with your coach and guide leading the way to exciting, off-the-beaten-path terrain that will fill your memory bank with unforgettable experiences and vistas.
