I took a school party to St Anton, the ski is fantastic, but the prices are so expensive.

re: St Anton

Its one of the finest resorts in Europe, if not the world. I'm going in Feb. It obviously costs more than Bansko, but has something like 200 pistes and a whole bunch of trails and off piste. Fantastic apres ski as well

re: St Anton

Mat is right, Anton is hot....
Many years ago kipped down in the railway station waiting room (with about 20 others Razz) for a couple of nights before finding relatively cheap accom in St Christoff up the valley...
I dunno if it still will be there but check out the `Crazy Kangaroo' especially around lunchtime, nutty guys going off the roof and over the terrace.... just for beer Booze

The crazy kangaroo is a bit passe - the funky chicken is the place to be and for the sheer hell of German techno on ice - the Moosevert. Most people stop skiing at 2 to start drinking.

re: St Anton

Listen for 500 drunk Germans - its not hard to find. Then you get to ski down a short mogul field. In the dark. Drunk.
