		Aficionados of St. Anton will know that the village underwent major building works in preparation for the 2001 Alpine Skiing World Cup, moving its railway station from the north side of the village to the south.
		As the original railway line split the resort from the ski slopes, its relocation has enhanced the resort's appeal by allowing skiers direct access to the village from the slopes.
		Following on from the success of the World Cup, St. Anton improved its appeal to non-skiers by converting the World Cup Media Centre into a leisure centre, offering indoor and outdoor swimming pools, sauna facilities, gym, skating and curling rink and restaurant combined with state-of-the-art conference facilities.

		Alpine skiing is also a very popular sport, although not as much as in the Alpine countries (Austria, Germany, Slovenia..) because alpine skiing is geographically limited by the low altitude hills or flat lands of most of Sweden and Finland.
