Alpine skiing at the 1964 Winter Olympics consisted of six events, held near Innsbruck, Austria, from January 30 to February 8, 1964.
Mild weather led to a lack of snow, which was trucked in and packed down by the Austrian army.

France's Marielle and Christine Goitschel led the individual medal table, each with one gold and one silver.
