In Austria, there is also a ski resort, which can be recommended to the fans of the extreme sports. It is St. Anton. The skiers, who prefer the risky adventures, have a choice of two 'black ski slopes' - Kandahar-Kapall and Kandahar-Galzig. Since 1928, these ski slopes have served as a place for the ski races FIS. This is where the best athletes in the world compete. The ski slopes, which are steep on steep slopes and steep curves, are among the most complicated in the world. And that's the reason. For many unprepared athletes the descent ends with the fatal outcome.
Apart from the professional 'black' slopes, the health resort has a mass of attractive attractions and is not only popular with freeriders, but also freeriders and party fans. The health resort is a center of the afterlife and offers the nightclubs and discos to every taste. St. Anton is one of the oldest ski resorts in the world, it was founded in 1901.
