What Our Nannies Can Do in St Anton
St Anton am Arlberg offers great programs for children and here is where our nannies become their best friend! There is a 4 km illuminated natural toboggan run from Gampen to Nasserein to the Rodelstall. This is open daily from 12pm to 4pm and with evening tobogganing between 7.30pm to 9.30pm on a couple of evenings per week (check with your nanny). This activity is for older kids. Our nannies love to take the children up the Galzigbahn and Vallugah cable car and explore the outdoor areas at the top. There are also horse-drawn carriage rides in the snowy Verwall Valley.
Ice skating, ice curling, and watching the St Anton ski instructors ski at night on a torch lit descent every Wednesday night are other activities your children can get involved with. They can also watch the free style skiers perform aerial acrobatic tricks! In the heart of St. Anton am Arlberg, our nannies take all age children to the modern Center for Wellness where they can go swimming and relax afterwards. Here they can also swim outdoors onlooking the stunning scenery. We advise to bring swimming nappies with you for your babies if taking part in this activity.
Arl.Rock Sports Centre – Multi choice sports; an indoor sports activity centre for older children, Arl.Rock’s main attraction is the ginormous climbing facility of almost 1,000 square metres indoor and outdoor.
